Club Notes

During last weekend the open 25 miles road event promoted by the Hastings Club was decided under good conditions. B Bevan, of the Highgate CC gained a well merited success in achieving the fastest time. In doing so he improved on last year’s winning time to the extent of 96 seconds and brought the course record down by 39 seconds. S E Maplesden of the Eastbourne C and AC, scored a popular win in annexing the first handicap award. In connection with this , it is interesting to note that by reason of handicap allowances, 10 competitors were brough within 1½ minutes of Maplesden. This indicates the judgement with which the handicaps were awarded.

In the race for the team honours (aggregate of the the three fastest men of one club), a fine struggle ensued, in which only 10 seconds covered the first three clubs. The following gives the chief results: 1st fastest B Bevan (Highgate CC), 1hr 5mins 10secs: 2nd fastest, E L Parsonson (Clapham CC), 1hr 7 mins 1sec: 3rd fastest H A Longley (Brighton Stanley) and G W Stanford (San Fairy Ann CC) 1hr 7mins 13secs. 1st handicap S E Maplesden (Eastbourne) 5 ¾ mins, 1hr 3mins 9secs; 2nd handicap G W Stanford (San Fairy Ann) 4 mins 1hr 3mins 13 secs; 3rd handicap R Westgate (Brighton Ex) [Brighton Excel], 6½ 1hr 4mins 26secs; 4th handicap, G Sinden (Hastings) 7mins, 1hr 4mins 28secs; 1st team San Fairy Ann (Maidstone), 3hrs 28mins 31secs; 2nd team, Clapham CC, 3hrs 26mins 37secs; 3rd team, Brighton Stanley, 3hrs 26mins 41secs.

Mr Harvey Smith (the club’s chairman) was timekeeper for the event assisted by F L March [Frederick March]. The timekeeping at the halfway stage was accomplished by Mr A I Balchin, with Mr F Rix acting as pivot for the riders’ turning.

The thanks of the club are due to Messers. Jenkins, Tester, Bliss, Mabb and Emary for marshalling the course. As referee, Sir Charles Kirkpatrick maintained a keen and interested watch over the whole activities. The organisation of the event was in the hands of Mr F C Gasson (hon. Secretary).

This weekend the club will be represented by J F Mackie, A Helliwell, R Harmer and C W Sinden in the 12 hours road event promoted by the Southern Counties Cycling Union.
