The poor weather yesterday deterred many people from travelling across to Long Newton to take part in the Stockton Wheelers’ Evening Time Trial.
Hats off to the two of our lads who rode.
The results can be found here.

Time trial events, news and results.
Stockton Wheelers have been forced to temporarily change their club TT circuit at Long Newton because of roadworks. It’s still a full 10 miles and involves going over part of the course twice. They will be using this on the 28th April. Signing on starts at 6.15 pm with first rider off at 7 pm. Usual place and same start location.
The course description is as follows :-
- Start on Mill Lane, Long Newton at the kerbstone with two marks, approximately 200m south west of the cycle track to Long Newton and 90m north east of the field gate. (This is also the T105/1 start).
- Proceed to the Airport roundabout and take the third exit onto the A67 westbound (1.30 miles).
