Apologies to Colin
for not mentioning the quiz in the last notes. The lady with the
most correct answers was Gina Brierley and modesty prevents me from naming the
man with the most points. We had a very enjoyable evening and Colin will be
back, by popular demand, with another quiz evening in the autumn
Nine riders took part in Keith’s foray onto the plain
where we covered approximately 100 miles along a combination of metaled and
gravel roads. No mishaps on the run but Reg managed
to sustain a puncture on the way home.
The Founders Day Relay Rally on Sunday 6th May
had 35 visitors with only one being from our section. This is a vast
improvement on the last time. Perhaps this was due to the weather or the new checkpoint
or both. Many thanks to our six marshals.
Sadly, I have to report the death of Dave Cox on Monday
7th May. The funeral is planned for 22nd May at the Haycombe
Cemetery, Bath. Further details will follow when they are confirmed.
Please find attached the recommendations for the future
of the VMCC which has been sent out from the management committee. I would like
to discuss this at a section meeting so that we can make comments/ideas back to
Allen House.
If you haven’t returned a signed form re the Data
protection act by 26th May then you will no longer receive any section notes or
other section correspondence.
Regulations and entry forms for the 2018 WHT which will
be on Sunday 1st July are now available and can be obtained from Peter or
downloaded from the website. www.starfield181.co.uk/westwilts/
