Eve 10 04-Jun-15
Congratulations to the winners of Thursday’s event, which despite being upset by an idiot pretending to be a marshall produced some fast times. At least four riders were affected by a member of the public pretending to be a marshal. Three riders actually went off course. On the way back, between Clarks Green and Beare Green, they were directed up Wigmore lane. They then turned right onto the A29 and rejoined the A24 at Beare Green. One rider from De Ver, David Chapman, stopped and was actually told that the road had been closed due to an accident. He then got confused and from Beare Green went to Newdigate and back to the car park on the 15 course. Mike Wakely noticed an article in Cycling Weekly that seemed to report this stupidity (see the end of this article).
