Virtual is the new normal.

Leave it to The Juniors. At the time of writing Tessa Parkin and Alex Adams are the club's leading performers in this month's Virtual Warwickshire Road Race League. Virtual is indeed the new normal as this week's newsletter will attest. We have a list of the prize winners from this month's Virtual Shakespeare Race. Massive thanks are due to the generous sponsorship of Brian Weetman, who as well as awarding these prizes has also donated £350 to national hero Colonel Tom's Just Giving page. I always did have a soft spot for Wolverhampton Wanderers' supporters. With a few days to go, our men's team are currently in 1st place in this month's Virtual Warwickshire Road Race League and our ladies are placed 3rd. A couple of our juniors are occupying top 10 places. Alex Adams is in 2nd place in the men's race and Tessa Parkin in 8th place in the ladies race. The imaginative nature of many club members are on display in Sarah Boundy's innovative Alphabet Club Scavenger Hunt. For any of you who may have missed the announcement on social media, the club's website or in the local press of club secretary Tony Jackson's elevation to Stratford Mayor, we have a statement from Paul Hawkins on his achievement, along with a link to a video message from Tony. There is the expected confirmation that the Vet's T&F fixture we were due to host at the High School track on July 8th has been cancelled. Finally there are few items from the club's archives that I hope will be of interest to you.

Report - Brian Weetman. Well what a joy it has been to watch all those run and ride times appear through the last few weeks . Not only some amazing efforts from an unbelievably talented group but also some extra hugely creditable efforts from those motivated to help the NHS. It has been a pleasure to offer www.riskhubgroup.co.uk as a sponsor. On my calculations we have 154 entries plus Wayne Vickers claimed two dogs and I saw two children in Hannah Osborne's photo, that makes 158 x 2 = £312 to the NHS. As I am sure we will have missed some I will round up to £350. Just in case you were wondering what to do with the £3 Shakespeare race entry you have saved, I will be donating the above via my new hero Colonel Tom's Just Giving site, link below https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/tomswalkforthenhs Not only will the winners receive a bottle of wine I am sure with our Tony Jackson now the Mayor, a civic reception is sure to follow. The winners were U 35 Georgina Campbell and Joe Lee .U 50 Maria Haslam and Seth Turner, over 50 Kate Wright and Nick Campbell.(just pipping me but I am also fine about…
