The 4th round of the Gawcott Challenge Cup is this week, time for a few riders to beat their time set in previous 3 rounds, Paul is still the current leader with a 6% improvement, followed closely by Keith Aston @ 5%. Weather is quite warm @ 24c, time to get a thirst on for a beverage of your choice afterwards.
The remaining dates scheduled are:
24th August
7th September
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
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

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.
