Superb RNRMCA team enjoy Summer of Success
Forget the traditional August main leave period. RNRMCA riders turned out in force to compete at both the Inter Service championship races and then de-camped to Wales to take the Welsh 12 hour championships by storm.
Team spirit couldn't be higher as 16 riders made the journey to Lincolnshire for the 10 & 25 mile time trial championships. Following a gruelling season in which the clubs top riders have already won many accolades the team were on form again and claimed the records for the 5th year in a row on the Saturday's 10 mile race.
