"One Day in Dorset" A 97 mile, National A Road Race!

“One Day in Dorset” A 97 Mile/150 km National A road race for Elite/1/2 category riders, supported by “Local Riders, Local Races” Dorset’s own cycling news site. Based at Milborne St Andrew, in the heart of rural Dorset, this new race on the calendar takes in Bulbarrow Hill above the picture postcard village of Milton Abbas. At 892ft the road across the top is the highest in the county, with the race route visiting the summit 9 times. The 5 mile drag up from Winterborne Whitechurch is never steep but, tackled twice will test the legs before a tough finale. A 9.6 mile finishing circuit will take the riders through Milton six times. The steep climb out of the village will see the strongest come to the front before the hilltop finish above the Blackmore Vale. The race date of Saturday May 24th 2014 is just four weeks before the National Road Race in Abergavenny and will be ideal preparation for the championship. “One Day in Dorset” has a minimum prize fund of £2000, entries will open 1ST January 2014.Full entry details HERE

A total of 8651 ft of climbing in 97 miles promises to make "One Day in Dorset" one of the toughest races on the domestic calendar in 2014. Bulbarrow Hill is well known to local riders, with at least ten different routes up, it is a favourite on club runs, charity rides & sportifs. "One Day in Dorset" will visit the summit nine times and whoever triumphs next May will know they have been in a race!

From the headquarters at Milborne St Andrew the course heads north-east on the A354.Taking the second left in Winterborne Whitechurch, the minor road is flat through the villages of Winterborne Clenston & Winterborne Stickland. One mile through Stickland, at Hedge End, a left turn starts the first climb of Bulbarrow, this three mile; “big ring” drag will do no more than offer good views as it gradually climbs the hill. Through the finish line for the first time at 9.9 miles, the descent to Ansty is uncomplicated; the left hand turn at the bottom will require attention though. A fast, rolling lane returns to Milborne and the A354. Again to Whitechurch but this time the first left at the Milton Arms starts a five mile ascent. The finger signpost at the public house says “6” but relax, it is only five. Like Hedge End, this long rise is never too steep with most staying in the 53 ring. However, the hill is exposed and if the wind blows, an attack on the steepest section above Milton Abbas could do some damage. The climb from Whitechurch is tackled twice before the race hits the six lap,9.6 mile finishing circuit. The historic village of Milton Abbas will provide the backdrop as the battle unfolds. Thirty six,identical, whitewashed thatched cottages stand to attention either side of the road, only a church, the old almshouses & the Hambro Arms interrupt the parade. The road rises through the village but it is only when the houses are behind that the tarmac starts to rear up. Under the trees is where it really hurts before emerging to meet the now familiar Whitechurch road, still three miles from the summit.

Winchester Criterium 2014

Following the success of the 2013 edition Winchester City council are seeking bids from organisers for 2014.
1.1 Introduction
Winchester City Council has established a standardised approach to the commissioning of services, projects and programmes. Whilst the Council has delivered work for many years through a variety of partner organisations, businesses and community groups, it now seeks to open up contractual opportunities more widely to encourage new approaches, efficiency and greater transparency of decision-making. More details HERE

This specification sets out the context, requirements and anticipated outcomes for the co-ordination of the Winchester Criterium 2014.

Winchester City Council aims to create a lasting legacy for the London 2012 Olympic Games locally by staging sporting events that help re-generate the community spirit that was witnessed in Winchester throughout the various events over the summer of 2012. Therefore, the core aim of this project is to engage the community as spectators, as active participants and as business partners in a large scale public event that will see a series of high speed cycle races which we anticipate taking place on Sunday 17 August 2014 from 2pm to 7pm. Building on the success of the 2013 event, a cycle fun day is to take place in the city centre earlier that day, specifically targeted to family audiences and for visitors/shoppers in the city centre.

As well as introducing dynamism to the city scape, this event will also underline the role of safe cycling as a fun, family friendly sport that is both environmentally friendly and healthy.

1.2 The Policy Context
The Winchester District Community Strategy (2010 to 2020) sets out three overarching outcome areas, in which the Council and its partner agencies are committed to delivering real change for local people. These are: Active Communities, Economic Prosperity and a High Quality Environment.

This commission is designed to support all three of these outcomes of the Community Strategy.

We intend to engage the community and encourage them to be active in and around the district; we are inviting businesses to support us as sponsors and ensuring a boost to city centre footfall throughout the day; and, in publicity and also during the Criterium, we will promote the benefits of cycling as an alternative to other forms of transport in terms of carbon emissions.

1.3 London 2012 and the Legacy
The London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games brought sport and physical activity to the forefront for communities and provided a catalyst to engage with people locally and promote active and healthy lifestyles. Events are able to show the social and cultural elements as well the health benefits of sport. They also encourage and inspire people to be more active and remain in people’s minds and conversations for many years.

In Winchester, there was a very positive response to the programme of events linked to the Games, with an estimated participation of 80,000 overall. Large-scale events proved to be particularly popular, and there is a clear appetite for more of these in the coming years.


1.4 Project Aims
The aims of this event are to:
- encourage and increase cycling participation across the Winchester District.
- draw a large number of spectators to the event, to generate a vibrant atmosphere and create business opportunities for local retailers/pubs/eateries.
- engage with businesses to ensure that they both support and benefit from the opportunities presented.
- promote cycling opportunities across the Winchester District as part of our local leisure/tourism product.
- promote cycling as an alternative form of transport for e.g. commuting.

The project should support the Council’s aspiration to host high quality, well attended community events in future years, which is also reflected in the Winchester District Sport and Physical Activity Legacy Framework 2013-2018 as part of the Olympic Legacy.


2) The Commission
The Council seeks to commission an individual or an organisation to provide an effective project management and support service up to and including the period when the Winchester Criterium will take place.

Officials to be elected will be a chairman, secretary and a treasurer.
“It would be nice if these posts were filled by people from different clubs so to get an even balance. I would like all local clubs to please canvas their members to see who would be interested in coming along and whether anyone would be interested in jobs in the association or committee and let me know what sort of numbers to expect. The more the merrier!” says Wkkes

Canford School
Wimborne
Dorset
BH21 3AD

Marguerite Wilson (Bournemouth Arrow) Information Needed!

Photo - 1938 Bournemouth Arrow CC Woman`s team - Miss D. Emery, Miss Marguerite Wilson, Miss Edith Baldry.


William Wilson of CC Weymouth is currently writing a book about the life and sporting career of Marguerite Wilson. She rode for Bournemouth Arrow between 1934 and 1938 before becoming the first Professional woman cyclist in the UK; She was a prolific record breaker. William is particularly keen to hear from any of Marguerites club-mates who could give a first-hand account of the era. William accepts this is a bit of a long-shot as any club mates will be well into their nineties by now! If you are interested in learning more about Marguerite Wilson, she has a Wikipedia page. There is Pathe Newsreel clip - go to Pathe Library and search for `Airways Girl`. --- Any information will be gratefully received - William Wilson (CC Weymouth). drwgwilson@aol.com

Inter Club Hill Climb:Weymouth Win on Whiteway, Keightley King of the Hill!

Five years ago the Dorset hill climb scene was facing redundancy, the EDCA open event had long since disappeared, club climbs were struggling to attract fields of double figures and the Bournemouth Arrow had given up altogether. The decision to form the inter-club series was obvious but still a master stroke. The emphasis on team competition with clubs mustering their troops via website forums and social media, coupled with all riders scoring points has made this end of term “dust up” the ideal lead into the social season. The increase in riders has brought the supporters out as well, with a great atmosphere created on the slopes, if not quite challenging the classics. CC Weymouth cannot produce an individual winner of the series but their ability to get riders out each week saw them take the team title for the fourth consecutive year. Lewis Keightley (BJW) took the honours at the final event on Whiteway Hill, powering up the longest climb in the 4 race series in a course record 06:41. Keightley started the series riding for the non-affiliated, Primera team before switching to Bournemouth Jubilee, despite his three victories only on Whiteway did he score points leaving him way down in the final standings. Should the 22 year old, who also won on Kingston & Creech, decide to race the road “seriously” next season he could do well, the question mark hangs over his head not his legs: Does he want it enough?

Simon McLaughlin (BJW) chased his new teammate up the saturated slopes but was 17 Seconds adrift in second place. Work commitments for Dr McLaughlin limit his racing opportunities but he seems to find form for the hills, winning the individual title for the third consecutive year.

Fighting his bike all the way up,Gary Dighton (PW) showed his versatility taking third, a week after riding the team pursuit at the world masters track championship. Starting just outside the village of East Lulworth, the 2.2 mile climb hugs the northern aspect of the hill overlooking the army tank ranges. A right hander on the steepest section breaks the rhythm, before a left hander stretches up to the finish, way above the lost wartime village of Tyneham on the Jurassic coast. Fifty one riders started the final race in the series, to the envy of more than a few open events. Sign on the line, rock up & race is what people want, no doubt about it.

The series is by no means perfect, Bournemouth Jubilee need to come to the party, Bournemouth Arrow need to reclaim “their” race and all need to make the trip to Portland.

Whiteway Hill lies in the army ranges in Dorset, regular firing takes place often leaving ordnance on the climb!

STOLEN BIKE

Stolen Bike
Message from Bournemouth Jubilee Wheelers stalwart, Bob Wareing
Sorry to report that someone broke into our garage / storeroom and stole my GIANT TCR3 road bike. It was the standard factory version with Shimano 105 gearing (10 speed) but the front wheel was a Campag Vento. New value is about £2050. Colour White, size 55cm. Fitted with two rear lights and a computer. The left bar tape is coming away from the central seal. The tyres are green /black by Vittoria. There is also a pump and tool bag.

Affectionately known as "Ballbearing" Bob is well into his 70s and despite undergoing heart surgery some years ago still regularly gets out into the lanes to relive his racing days. He is already missing his bike so any info gratefully recieved by BJW or "LR,LR"

The Bournemouth Track League: All Change for 2014!

Changes are underway for the Bournemouth Track league next year, overseen by new league promoter Adam D’Arcy-Wykes. Building on the success of the Bournemouth Arrow promoted league of the last two seasons, the new BOURNEMOUTH TRACK LEAGUE will be run by the Bournemouth track league association. Local clubs, including Poole Wheelers, CC Weymouth, New Forest CC , Bournemouth Jubilee & Bournemouth Arrow will be invited to form the new association and contribute to the effective running of the league. Wykes is keen to hear from potential sponsors for the league that will move to Friday evenings for 2014. ”I am looking for sponsors, possibly for each category, for example The NAME… A League, The NAME… B League, The NAME… Ladies League etc and maybe have a leader’s jersey for each category, maybe a team competition also” He told “LR,LR”. Further details including racing dates for 2014 will follow in due course.

World Masters Gold: Storeys Reinvention!

Former Bournemouth Jubilee Wheeler, Barney Storey, won the 35-39, 3KM Individual Pursuit at the World Masters track championships in Manchester. Better known as a sprinter and Paralympic tandem pilot, Storey proved he has staying power as well, as he reinvents himself after leaving the Paralympic programme earlier this year. Speaking after wife Sarah had presented him with his first solo rainbow jersey Barney said
“It’s a really satisfying result to win the pursuit. It’s a new challenge, swapping from sprint to endurance events and one I am enjoying. It will take another year before the changes take the biggest effect. But the early signs are encouraging and my ability to back up in tough conditions proves I am responding well to the changes. Monday (14th) is a very exciting day as we are announcing a new elite womens cycling team. We are delighted with the riders we have been able to select and are fortunate to be backed by the UKs biggest cycling equipment distributor, Exciting times!"
Barney is team manager for the Madison Boot out Breast Cancer Team, formally launched on Monday 14th October.

New Forest News, Whitewick Wins Downton 2 Day!

TOTTON’S Steve Whitewick (VeloRefined/Aerosmiths) took top honours in the Downton Two-Day Classic at the weekend, while New Forest CC’s 16-year-old Hugo Walters took the junior award in 16th place overall.
This year's running of the Downton-based road race organised by Antelope Racing Team’s Glenn Longland saw Whitewick take the win for the second time in three years (writes Patrick Walters).
Around 60 riders had signed up for the popular race which involves a 2.4km prologue time trial up Wick Hill followed by a 47km handicap road race around Fritham, Brook, Landford and Woodfalls on Saturday.
The following day the race concluded with a 37km hilly time trial south along the A338, east on open Forest roads to Red Shoot, Ocknell Plain and Roger Penny Way before turning back to Woodfalls.
New Forest Cycling Club was represented by Stuart Peckham, Stewart Ward, young Walters and Nick Williams.
Good performances in the prologue saw Peckham, Walters and Ward starting the road race four and eight minutes behind earlier groups and four minutes ahead of the scratch group.
Despite their best efforts neither the scratch group nor the NFCC group were able to catch the early starters.
The road race was won by Matthew Heathcote (JMJ Cycles) three minutes ahead of the NFCC group with the scratch group a further two minutes down the road.
The generous handicapping set up an interesting time trial the following day with the top riders needing to overturn several minutes’ deficit to have a chance of a podium place.
Walters posted an excellent 58:31 (14th place), Stewart Ward 1:00:58 (19th), Stuart Peckham 1:01:28 (22nd) and Nick Williams 1:11:15 (50th). Time trial winner was Harry Bulstrode (Peter Hansford Racing) in 52:25, with Whitewick in second place with 53:26.
Whitewick's better time in the previous day's road race meant that he took the overall win by 35 seconds from Bulstrode. Gary Allan (GA Cycles) filled the remaining podium place.
NFCC's top placed overall was Hugo Walters (16th), the race's only junior entrant. With his clubmates “The Forest” took 4th place in the team competition.
Other Southampton area placings: 4, Simon Barnes (GA Cycles); 5, Oli Emmans (TLI); 8, Henry Nixon (Soton Uni RC); 9, Ray Claridge (GA Cycles); 13, Steve Wood (TLI); 14, Charlie Leech (Soton Uni);19, Jon Dudley (Sotonia CC); 20, Thomas Key (Soton Uni); 28, Andrew Lockwood (Soton Uni); 39, Rob Ellis (VC St Raphael); 40, Richard Burch (Sotonia); 41, James Peckham (Sotonia); 47, Christopher Brooks (Soton Uni); 48, Michael Horsman (TLI), 54, John Sanchez-Bissen (Crabwood CC).

Keightley Conquers Creech!

Lewis Keightley (Primera) took his second win in the inter club hill climb series, storming up Creech hill in 2:22:4, no one can remember anyone going quicker*. Keightley, who won on Kingston in round 1 made the steep, wooded slopes of the Purbeck climb look easy, even accelerating on the most brutal part of the accent. Simon McLaughlin (BJW) is no fan of Creech, preferring the longer, Portland or Whiteway climbs. However the Jubilee man got stuck in, taking maximum points again with a gutsy ride that was three seconds too quick for the smother looking James Horton (Poole Wheelers).

CC Weymouth once again packed the field on a warm, still Autumn morning that was made for bike riding. The pleasant weather also got the fans out, with plenty of encouragement being offered as the climb ramped up. The West Dorset club look good to retain their team title going into the final round on Whiteway Hill in two weeks time. Poole Wheelers were also out in force, showing their support for club member Jon Terry who was seriously injured after being hit by a car on Thursday last week.*Poole Wheelers President, Colin Price stii talks about a 2:14 he did on a cold day back in 1971.
