Blackburn results

The provisional results for the Blackburn event are now on the web - any queries to me, although I will be away from Friday lunchtime until Sunday evening. There will be at least 2 additions to the results when those stuck in traffic do their runs on Friday evening. Very pleasing to have a number of new faces, especially John Embrey who is going to be a 'one to beat' for the rest of the series. As Chris says some people got quite high time penalties probably due to the hilly nature of the area and their over enthusiasm also, unfortunately there were some transposition errors. Overall though I believe a good time was had by all both inside and outside the pub. So now onto Kirkham. It is very important that you read the final details as Ray has devised a very different scoring system. See you there - Bob

The Street League is here again!

SROC's popular Night Street League started the new season with a return to Blackburn North and the Alexandra. The hilliness of the area seemed to catch out quite a few with some punitive penalties deducted for lateness. Add your route to RouteGadget to compare with others'. Scores for the event will be published shortly.

Registration will be in the Park Hotel, close to the University of Cumbria campus, with pub food available post run. This will be the first time that the UoC and Williamson Park maps have been linked in the same event, and may be the last time that the campus can be used for a while as a major redevelopment is planned.

Event Postponed

We are sorry to announce that the 2nd Autumn Series event at Eaves Wood, Silverdale, on Saturday 11th October has had to be postponed as we have lost the car park field and cannot find a replacement. Watch this space for a new date in a few weeks time.

Possible postponement of Eaves Wood event on Saturday

Please check the website nearer the day to check if alternative parking arrangements have been found. Otherwise the event will have to be postponed.

Autumn Series event 2 - Eaves Wood

This event is in doubt as the parking field has been lost due to a double booking.

SROC success in Montenegro

Miriam & David Rosen both won medals in last week's Montenegro 5-day event. The races, organised by Park World Tour, featured sprint races around picturesque old towns such as Dubrovnik and Kotor and a middle distance forest race in the limestone mountains.
Miriam won three of the stages in the W65 class and won by 11 minutes overall. The last day was a tricky sprint round the old town of Herceg Novi and half of the M60s failed to visit one or more controls so David unexpectedly came 3rd overall.

SROC Night Street League 2014-15

As the darkness rapidly approaches the witching hour of 6.30 pm so it is time to turn our thoughts to the adventure of the next Street League series. So dig out your kit, sharpen your pencils, check your torches and prepare yourselves for the challenges. In just over two weeks time it will be a return to Blackburn and details of the venue can be found here. A menu for the night is here. The full series with dates and areas can be found using this link. Many thanks to all those who have agreed to put on an event and I look forward to seeing 'old' faces and meeting newcomers. See you there - Bob
