The Eagle Road Club held its annual awards dinner on
Saturday 30th January. Club members celebrated their achievements in road races
and time trials during 2009 including Chris Baldwin winning the Club
Championship for the second year, and winning the National 100 mile time trial
championship in the 50+ age group. Here is Chris receiving his award from our President Alan McArdle and his good lady Elaine.
Other notable highlights were Phil Hersey winning the
Blackpool Nocturne Race in front of a packed Golden Mile crowd, which went some
way to ensure Phil won the Eagle Road Club’s first Road Race Championship. Our road race championships are awarded to the rider gaining the most BC points over the year.
Liz Chittenden with several strong performances throughout
the year won the Ladies Road Race Championship, another new trophy for our
members to compete in.
In the junior ranks Matt Farrow and Nell Baldwin (both under
8) had fantastic seasons winning races and scoring podium positions at the
National Championships against older children.
After the evening’s formalities the dancing began with some rather nifty
footwork. Here’s looking forward to the
2010 season.
