The 2015 Isle of Wight Randonnee will be held on Sunday 3rd May 2015. As is now the custom it will be run in a clockwise direction and there is a choice of two rides. The 100km route involves a complete circumnavigation of the Isle, while the 55km rides takes in the NW quarter of the island with an excursion inland to Newport.

The event starts at 9am from any of the control points and this year entrants will be limited to 2,000 places only.  To register online asap please go to http://www.cycleisland.co.uk/index.php…

Please note

The IoW Randonnee clashes with the Condor Cycles 3-day Stage race, where the Willesden CC will be organising the second stage (Sunday 3rd May 15) at Hillingdon, so volunteers will be much needed here.

Willesden Dinner 2015

Here are the photos of the winners at the dinner, and a few on the dance floor. A good time was had by all, and Charlotte and Tom worked hard to make it a success. The band came over really well and the floor was always full of dancers. About the dinner, I did enjoy it, but felt a bit like Oliver and wanted more!! But it was a good evening and everyone looked like they enjoyed it.

Club Runs update

The Club Captain has supplied the following update:   There will be no more club runs in 2014.  Thanks Captain.

Runs will resume in 2015.   As the Captain is 95 this year, more people need to volunteer to lead rides.  All you Garmin owners out there, get on the front.
