Phil Hersey wins the first race in the ELV winter series

Phil Hersey won the first event of the ELV winter series last Saturday, breaking away on his own to win by an impressive 54 seconds.  His competitors said he was unbeatable on the day, as once he had built the gap, none of the peloton riders were willing to work to bring him back.

Many thanks to Dave Hayward for letting the Eagle use his pictures.  

In the 3/4 race wthe Eagle had several riders making their seasonal debuts, with new member Phil Sheehan the best finisher in 11th place. 

An excellent start to 2012.

December and Eagles are still racing

Sunday Rides

For those of you that are not active in our "Members Area", I thought I should let you know that the Sunday morning rides are now in full swing.  The Eagle regulars are meeting at 9-00 am at the Castle pub Woodford for a few hours of fun.
