A reminder of last year’s club awards night, an event when the whole club are given the chance to gather together to recognise the achievements of club members throughout the previous 12 months.
Happy New Year to you all.
We start the New Year as we finished the old year, with a photo special.
I mentioned in the last Newsletter of 2025 that while we competed, officiated, coached, supported and trained hard, we also knew how to play hard.
I’m hoping that this week’s photo special shows that when we are doing those things, we are, for the most part, doing so with smiles on our faces, even in the most extreme of circumstances.
Sincere thanks to all of you who contributed to the newsletter in 2025, across 53 editions and some 115000+ words. Without your submissions there would be no newsletter.
Thank you.
Good luck to all of you who will be competing, supporting or helping out in this week’s XC races, in what looks likely to be typical XC weather, should they all go ahead.
Hopefully some of the photos below will put a smile on your faces. For the most part they are a reminder of how much fun and enjoyment we get even in the most challenging of circumstances, as illustrated perfectly by Simon Penson below. I’m not sure he’s got a smile on his face though !
