Wellington Wheelers Cycling Club

Wellington Wheelers Cycling Club. A social cycling club based in Wellington Somerset for riders of all ages and abilities. We run rides throughout the week as well as Time Trials in the summer and trips to the Newport Velodrome. The social side of the club is also taken very seriously with each ride having a cafe stop, and several events planned through the year including a summer BBQ, an Easter Egg Hunt and the Christmas lunch. For more information please contact us.

Trial of the the new Time Trial route - Milverton to Wiveliscombe

We are trialling a new time trial course which will run between the roundabouts at Wiveliscombe and Milverton. Members of the club will be signing on at 09:00 for an 09:30 start on Sunday 22nd February. 

For this to be a genuine trial we are planning to have it fully signed, marshaled and timed. Martin, as ever, has agreed to put the signs out and we have Andy to push off. Two of our time-keepers are away, but I'm sure Simon and Charles will be able to cover that.

What is lacking at the moment are confirmed marshals, of which I need half a dozen. Obviously we want as many people to ride as possible, but no one will ride without there being people to marshal the two roundabouts and a couple of junctions.

If you are interested, or have family members who would turn out, please get in touch as soon as possible, please.

Otherwise, if you're planning to drive, please park in the east bound lay-by close to the Milverton roundabout. Sign-on will be in this lay-by, and to get to the start on the opposite side you will have to go east to go around the Milverton roundabout. Warming up will be in an eastward direction toward Preston Bower and Hillcommon. You cannot cross the start line. 

Please invite your friends and families along to watch - there are many places along the route to do this, and they'll be able to keep track of the competitors who will be  going by quite regularly.
