Keith reports:
"Derek was a prolific winner of races in the 60s/70s including the Perfs in
1973, always in an attacking style, who was tragically run down and killed
by an unlicensed,uninsured motorist in 2008 on the Itchen bridge in
Southampton.
Yesterdays race promoted in his memory by his old club GS Europa was held on
the tough Milburys circuit nr Winchester in typical July weather of grey
clouds, cold wind and pouring rain although it was a bright ending for the
CiclistiVecchi/Meudon/CycleKingdom toughies who braved the elements.
In the A/B race Tim Costello doing his Movistar Ivan Guttierez impersonation
rode away on his own to win by over a minute with Larry Larcombe 4th, Craig
Peter 5th, Gianluca 6th and Keith Jarrett 9th.
In the C/D event Rob Cranstone was 6th and in the Eplus age group I was 3rd.
Next week is the Newbury LVRC, good circuit, still places available, see the
LVRC website."
