scorpa3 Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 Entries are now closed for the Stratford Upon Avon round of the Midland Centre Championships at Shennington on Sunday. The 63 rider entry is headed by Beta rider S.Saunders. With three routes available, there should be something for everyone but don't expect an easy ride around, the Clerk of the Course is Alan Wright! Late entries are more than welcome on any route, up to the 100 rider limit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the addict Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 Mmmmmmmmmmmmm Steves coming is he, maybe I should move routes? Wrighty no doubt will want to take a few off him which will pretty much mean a tonne up score for me Looking forward to it though, got a feeling it will be wet as predicted Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorpa3 Posted December 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 Yep, I had a feeling we were due for a wet RV this year. At least I can make the graded hill climb straight up again for the first time since 2002..... get those head gaskets on order now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martinh Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 I wouldn't mind going to watch this trial, but can't find Shennington anywhere, only Shenington (ie one 'n'). Is this where I should be looking? I have looked on the official regs and it has the double 'n'. Can anyone help? Cheers Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickmetcalfe Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 (edited) Shenington is off the Banbury to Stratford road near Edge Hill and Radway. It will be flagged with Castrol arrows or similar. try this link. http://www.streetmap.co.uk/newmap.srf?x=43...p=newsearch.srf The venue is the stream (although in reality there isnt a lot of water in it these days) that is just above Orchard Hill and the number 197. Lots of rain in the Banbury area in the last 7 days - everywhere is very very soft at the moment. The Warren will be in prime condition!!!!

mickmetcalfe Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 Blimey, Pete - great minds think alike!! JCM primed and ready to go. Will it create more interest than the Rev 4? I doubt it will as I would rather be on the Rev 4 as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorpa3 Posted December 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 (edited) I'm relying on Alan N to moderate Wrighty for the B route on Saturday. He was talking about BIG climbs everywhere! I might leave the bike in the garage and drag out the video camera instead. It is definately going to be a muddy one!

scorpa3 Posted December 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 Three laps of 16 sections if we can find the observers. Three routes on offer but if you are unsure which route to ride...... drop down! It's not going to be an easy day out, especially if it rains! There's not a single A route section I could even scrabble through. There again I'm not much cop! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrybaines Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 I look forward too hearing of Justin`s humiliation by Steve then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scorpa3 Posted December 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 I look forward too hearing of Justin`s humiliation by Steve then! Justin has a huge advantage. He starts no 1 and the early numbers will get to the muddy bits beofre they get too deep! I'm sure that will make all the difference.

barrybaines Posted December 9, 2006 Report Share Posted December 9, 2006 should I say more? if Just beat saunders and its not fixed! then i`ll buy A NEW BIKE you could put the guy through a differnt route and he`d still wipe the floor with the best! and some Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
