A pleasant warm day greeted the small but select field for the club’s annual use of this course, which takes in the Fawley by-pass and the Calshot one way system.
Competitors included the latest rider to take the ‘Tandem Tart Challenge’. Martin Napier made his tandem racing debut with the lady herself, Mary Corbett – now on partner 45!
