Hello Swans,

For the 2nd year running, Silverstone don't appear to be running any cycling events this year therefore we have the 'Gawcott Challenge Cup', slightly revised from 2022. As before, it's simply turn up at the Crown pub in Gawcott, ride the route as fast and as safely as you can, and then reward your effort with a tasty beverage.

The time set will be your starting point; we will then meet monthly to see how we are progressing and give some encouragement and partake in a tasty beverage. The most improved rider will be awarded the fabled "Gawcott Challenge Cup" (Current Holder Stuart McMahon).

Dates Time 7 till 8

June 30th Starting point time
July 28th
August 25th.
September TBC

Safety
This is an open road event; be aware of other road users
Ride the route before your hot lap; noting, potholes and failed surfaces etc
T junction- as the route turns left with traffic from the right, prepare to stop

Route
This years route is almost the same, but slight shorter (taking out the traffic filter in Gawcott), the start is the same outside the The Crown Pub, and will finish at the Lenborough road junction
Strava Segment name: The Swan Section
Distance 6.45 Miles

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
