The Pedestrian Fete [6 August 1977], which has now become an annual event, took place, as usual, in the Central Cricket and Recreation Ground, where a large concourse of spectators assembled to witness the running. The entries were numerous, and some of the races were a most exciting character. One of the chief features of the programme was the bicycle race, which was watched with great interest, and which fully justified the anticipations of the spectators that it would afford good sport. The weather could not possibly have been finer, and everything passed off most successfully. During the afternoon the band, of the Hastings Rifle Volunteers was in attendance, and performed excellent programme of music. , Mr. G P Finn was handicap per, usual, with Mr F W Nichols as starter, and Mr H Cheal a referee. The general arrangements were ably carried out Mr S Watling. The following were the results of the various races: [...] Two Miles handicap Amateur Bicycle Race – 1st prize, silver cup, value seven guineas. 2nd, silver cup, value three guineas; 3rd, silver medal with gold centre; 4th, a silver medal: in two heats : ten times round the course. Five started in the first heat. 1st. C Fitzgerald. Ashford (220 yards); 2nd, C W Nicholas, Brighton Bicycle Club (160 yards). Second heat: five started. A most exciting race for first position took between G Kent Tunbridge Wells (200 yards), and F East, Surrey Bicycle Club (15O yards), each taking alternate positions amidst the greatest excitement, the former winning by about three feet. H Hart, of Eastbourne Bicycle Club, who rode well, was a good third. The first two in the heats competed in the final, which was a very close contested race. Kent, who came first in the last heat, soon dropped to the rear, virtually leaving the race to the other three, who kept close together during the last few laps. East was the favourite, but at the last he was obliged to give way a little to his two opponents, who put it on in gallant style. All three came in at the last very close together to tremendous shouts of applause, and the greatest excitement and enthusiasm, as follows :—C Fitzgerald (Ashford), 1st; C W Nicholas (Pickwick Bicycle Club). 2nd; F East (Surrey), 3rd and G Kent [Tunbridge Wells] 4th. |

THE PEDESTRIAN FETE IN THE CRICKET GROUND. A pedestrian fete was held in the Central Cricket and Recreation Ground in the afternoon of Monday [14 April 1879], but owing, no doubt, to the dampness of the ground and the threatening aspect of the weather, the spectators were not nearly numerous as on previous similar occasions. The several events on the programme were carried out under the management of Mr S Watling, of Brighton, Mr. G F Finn officiating as handicapper and referee, and Mr H Cheal as starter. The band of the Hastings Rifle Corps was engaged, and played selections during the afternoon. Mr H Love, of the Pilot Inn, supplied the refreshments. The results of the racing were follows : ... Two Miles Handicap Amateur Bicycle Race. —This race was restricted to members of the Hastings Bicycle Club only. There were eight entries, and it was run in two heats. In the first Lovett [A Lovett jun], 20 yards start, won and Gilbert, scratch, was second. In the second, Philcox, 10 yards start, was first; and Styles, scratch, second. The final heat was won by Lovett, Philcox being second, and Gilbert, third.

Crack Cyclist Death of Mr 'Jimmy' Moren Mr. James ('Jimmy') Moren [James Moren], one of Hastings crack cyclists at the end of the last century, died at the Royal East Sussex Hospital on Saturday [15 August 1941], at the age of 76. Brought up in the grocery business. he worked for his father in Bohemia Road after leaving school. He then changed his occupation, and his exceptional interest In cycle racing coincided with his employment with Mr. George Jenkins in his cycle business. Later he returned to his old trade and opened grocery business in Southwater road where he remained for very many years. As a racing cyclist. Mr Moren made his bow to the public In 1884 at Bank Holiday athletics meeting at the Central Ground at Hastings. where mounted on a 52 inch ordinary he gained first place In an open race. A year later he created something of sensation locally initiating the '100 miles road record.' He accomplished the 100 miles in the then phenomenal time of 11 hours 47 minutes, and for this feat the Hastings and St. Leonards Bicycle and Tricycle Club, of which he was a member, presented him with a silver medal. The 100 miles record became very popular with local cyclists, but Mr Moren monopolised the honours until 1892, in which year he covered the distance In 7 hours 3 minutes. During his career Mr. Moren frequently rode up the Castle Hill, and was the first to attempt the slope from Wellington-Square to the West Hill to the terminus the lift. In 1899, when he was honoured with the captaincy of the local Cycling Club, he was described 'the most brilliant handicap rider In Hastings.' His speciality was long distance riding, and on several occasions he won the Mastin Challenge Cup—of which he became permanent holder—starting from scratch and conceding starts up to 450 yards. Up to 1900 Mr. Moren had competed in over 300 races, and won 107 prizes. He was connected with the local Cycling Club for many years, and was one of its oldest members, if not the oldest. He frequently arranged dances in aid the club, and was himself a keen dancer. As a member of the local volunteer force of cyclists he rode at the great Military Exhibition held at Chelsea. The race was open to all England and only missed being first in the final by inches. The 62 competitors included the leading cycling stars of the Kingdom. In addition to cycling, Mr Moren was very fond of sea and river fishing, and was also a keen gardener. He was a member of the Bohemia Conservative Club for many years. On retiring from business. Mr Moren and his daughter went to live at 97 Battle Road, St. Leonards. The funeral took place on Thursday at the Borough Cemetery, the Rev. John Daniel, minister of Chapel Park Road Baptist Church, St. Leonards, officiating. The immediate mourners were Miss W. Moren (daughter). Mr. and Mrs. Hodges. Mrs. Upton, Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Brooker, Miss Wallis, Mrs. Dann. Mrs. Busbridge. Miss Hewlett. Mr. Baker; Mrs. Mlddleton (friends). Floral tributes were received as follows: —Wreath. From the daughter: Mr. and Mrs. Berryman and family: Arthur Loynes (Canterbury): Eva Hicks (Tonbrldge): Mr. and Mrs. Upton and Kath; Mr. and Mrs. W. Baker: Miss O'Dell and L N.; All at 95, Battle-road; Battle Road Fire Watchers. Section 4; Miss Hewlett; Mr. and Mrs. S. Watman: From fellow gardener; Catherine: Mr. and Mrs. G. H. Brooker.

Following a winter of long training miles in harsh conditions, Hastings and St Leonards Cycling Club members are beginning to stretch their legs with some early season racing. Several have been active in the Surrey and Kent road racing league series with John Willis, Frank Mcleod and Paul Panagi contesting the 3rd and 2/3rd category events. Young Chris Kitchenham, now in junior ranks after three successive years as a schoolboy, looks to be starting the season on a high note. Following his ninth place in the Sussex CA 25 mile time trial at Arundel earlier this month, he astounded fellow club members with a scorching 22 min 19 sec ride in the Elite CC 10 mile promotion at Brentwood on Saturday. In a class field featuring some of the south’s top riders, Chris swept to the 4.99 miles turn in less than 10 minutes, while averaging speeds in excess of 35 mph. On the return leg to the finish with the last half mile on tricky and narrow Essex lanes, he was hampered by a rising chill northerly wind which reduced his speed to just under the 25 mph barrier. Beaten into second junior position by a mere 15 seconds, Chris took consolation in the knowledge that his real speed training has not yet started. |
