HAPPY BIRTHDAY COLIN!!!
Special
Birthday Greetings to our most experienced member. Our good chum
Colin celebrates the big seven-five this week - many happy returns from
all the members of Velo Teifi Cycling Club
VTCC events:
A recent venture was the Preseli Teifi Cyclo Sportif
- probably the most beautiful event in the UK. The weather
tried to spoil the middle of the day, hiding the views from our
visitors, however most riders agreed the event was a good one and most
have vowed to return and 'Tame the Beast' next year.
Many congratulations to Wayne Long of Velo Teifi who
slayed the long course and humbled the rest of us with a spectacular
ride and a frankly unbelievable time of 4 1/2 hours.
The full results lists will be published here soon.

| Stuff we've done or are planning to do. |
Sunday, 20th July: Next planned Ladies Ride.
Sunday, 13th July: Next planned club ride
Sunday, 6th July: Merida MTB Marathon, Builth Wells. See Links Section.
Tuesday, 1st July: Criterium Racing at Pembrey Circuit. 7p.m.
start time, we'll be there at 6.15 onwards. Cost you around £20 for
those without racing licences
Sunday, 30th June: Good turn out for a run to Llangrannog for coffee
and carrot cake. However, the ride did give birth to a new
feature on this site - a feature that, if your name should appear, you
can expect the scorn of all your fellow club members... see Hall of Shame....
Sunday, 22nd June: Another splendid turn out by the girls. And guess what? Yep, another fallen tree encountered and dispatched with!
Tuesday, 3rd June:
Criterium Racing at Pembrey Race Circuit. A strong performance by
the attendant VT members. Great fun - watch out for the next
dates...
Sunday, 1st June: A splendid turnout!
with numbers approaching 20, the VTCC peleton ruled the roads all
the way to Newport and back. Nice one.
Monday, 2nd June: A tough 2.5 hours spent exploring the joys of CarnIngli and Dinas Mountain - local MTB heaven!
Sunday, 18th May 2008: A cracking day out, Gromit! Blue
skies, warm sunshine, double figure turn out and full fat latte's all
round. Hangovers cured and garish kit on display. Proper cycling!
Well done to all who put their faith in the Chairman's route planning; Nevern and Moylgrove hills? Pah! We laugh at such pitiful challenges
Sunday, 25th May 2008: Proving
hardier than hardier things, the ladeez did indeed venture out on
that cold and wet Sunday morning and, by all accounts, enjoyed a fairly
pleasant ride to boot! Well done to those tough souls who have
made the Chairman look even more pitiful than usual... Not only did the
girls wade through raging torrents, they also negotiated fallen trees
with a hop, skip and a jump! Hopefully the VTCC Lady contingent will
continue the impressive turn out through the summer months.
