The final ride in the Witham Wheelers reliability series was blessed with perfect weather conditions as they tackled a 97 mile rolling course to Rockingham Castle and back.

John Hill rode the full distance on his own in 8hrs 10 minutes while the main bunch of 18 riders rode steadily keeping together until the last 20 miles when the hills around Ruckland started to take their toll.

First back was Phil Etches, Dave Strickson and Jacob Storey in 5 hrs 28.00min for an average riding speed of 17.7mph.

Sunday 22nd sees the return of clubruns starting at 9.30am from the Market Cross with groups to suit varying abilities. Note when the clocks change on 29th March start time will be 9.00 am
