Hull Thursday Road Club

The Keith Carter Memorial Road Race is set to take part on 13th April, 2014, but is now in jeopardy due to a shortfall in the required volunteer staff.

The first event of the club’s time trial series is less than one week away on this Saturday, 15th March at Sproatley (a 14 mile 2-up TTT).

They said it was madness to enter. They said we wouldn’t last a lap and they said it would be a complete waste of time trying.

Thank you to everyone who replied to the request below (‘HTRC Time Trial Series 2014′). I now have just about enough volunteers to sort the series for the season, and have submitted the police forms accordingly.
