Entries are now open for our final event of the year for BHPC Members only. It will be open to non-members on the 6th October if places are still avalable. There will be 60 places available and this event is likely to sell out. We will try to create a reserve list as we did last year in case anyone drops out, but to be sure of avoiding disappointment get your entry in early. Track opens from 10:00, racing starts at 11:00 Race format will be: Race 1: 30 Minutes Anticlockwise for slower riders Race 2: 30 Minutes Anticlockwise for faster riders Race 3: 30 Minutes Clockwise for slower riders Race 4: 30 Minutes Clockwise for faster riders The AGM and handing out of the trophies will follow in the clubhouse. See you all there!! https://shop.bhpc.org.uk/race-signon |

41 entries for Hillingdon already. 19 places left. First come, first served. It's looking fairly unlikely that we'll be opening this one up to non-members. ------------- |

| unfortunately I won’t be racing at Hillingdon, as I seem to have caught a mother of a cold @ Gravesend race, still struggling with breath, and ‘nose nasties’. Best of luck all. |

Please note that we have a lot of handcyclists coming to Hillingdon and we always try to reserve the parking nearest to the clubhouse for wheelchair users. If you could avoid parking there if you’re not a wheelchair user it would be appreciated and save us having to ask you to move… Also note that we have had problems there in the past with the local “do as you likeys” from the travellers site breaking in to cars in the service road. Best advice is probably to park in the Goals car park where there are cameras. I don’t know yet if I will be allowed to unlock or if we’ll have to wait for someone from the cycle club again. ------------- |

I don't plan to keep the BHPC kit over the winter. It takes a lot of my living room. It consists of the tent, antennae, green crate, first aid box and mains extension. ------------- jdub... Got the T-shirt http://protobikes.org.uk/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/150386999@N02/ |

It would be interesting to know what happened to the wooden clock stand and kitchen clock. ------------- jdub... Got the T-shirt http://protobikes.org.uk/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/150386999@N02/ |

I'll take the aerials, so I can work out how to mount a camera on one of them. Don't really want to store any more kit, as we're already functioning as a de-facto warehouse for the useless workshy [REDACTED - Ed]s at Medequip.

I could stow some stuff but unsure if I will be at the first race next year. Do we have the races for 2023 planned yet? ------------- Current fleet: Milan SL MK2 #027, Fujin SL II, Beany! |

Thanks Jonathan. Is there anyone going to Hillingdon on Sundaywho would store any of this over winter and bring to the first race next year? We will take the tent and the first aid box. |

There's been some confusion over the start time for Hillingdon on Sunday.
For the avoidance of doubt: Racing will begin at (or shortly after) 11:00, starting with the slower group. The race format will be 30min+1lap anticlockwise, followed by 30min+1lap clockwise. The awards ceremony and AGM will take place in the clubhouse afterwards. We hope to have access to the track for warm-up from 10:00, possibly earlier, depending on how quickly they're able to unlock the vehicle access gate. Please could people leave the parking near the clubhouse free for wheelchair users. See you there. |

Race 1: 11:00 AM 30 Minutes Anticlockwise for slower riders Race 2: 11:45 AM 30 Minutes Anticlockwise for faster riders Race 3: 1:00 PM 30 Minutes Clockwise for slower riders Race 4: 1:45 PM 30 Minutes Clockwise for faster riders The AGM will get underway as soon as we can after the racing

Good to see we're on the same page :) I've just lightly edited the OP to include the start time.

Today's results are up at: http://www.bhpc.org.uk/Data/Sites/1/media/events/events22/12hillingdon/index.html" rel="nofollow - http://www.bhpc.org.uk/Data/Sites/1/media/events/events22/12hillingdon/index.html And the overall 2022 Championship table at: http://www.bhpc.org.uk/Data/Sites/1/media/events/events22/BHPC_2022.html" rel="nofollow - http://www.bhpc.org.uk/Data/Sites/1/media/events/events22/BHPC_2022.html I think we had exactly one missed tag read all day - which is probably a record - so thanks to everyone who managed to wear the right helmet, not stick things to carbon fibre, or sneak past the aerials in the RF shadow of a velomobile. This meant there was very little for the time team to do to correct the results other than tell it who'd stopped for mechanicals. This, combined with Past Me not introducing any exciting new bugs to the merge-o-matic, meant that generating the final championship table during the AGM was quick and easy. Do let me know if you spot any issues. Names that need aliasing or similar...
