TIME TRIALS or the RACE OF TRUTH. The South Western Road Club hold a programme of time trialling events (racing against the clock) throughout the season from March to September. The programme includes a series of evening events open to club members, a series of inter-club events held jointly with Epsom CC and a Hill climb Championship in the autumn.
Some of the club events are designated as two ups which are time trials for a team of two who ride together during the event. These prove very popular and are an ideal way to get your first taste of this aspect of cycling especially if you team up with one of the old hands.
Many of our serious time triallists also take part in Open events organised by clubs throughout the country. There are usually several to choose from, over distances of 10, 25, 50 and 100 miles, not too far away most weekends and there are even a few 12 hour and 24 hour events for those who really get the time trial bug.

Martin Koester is the SWRC Time Trial Secretary and would be only too pleased to see more existing or new members entering the time trialling scene and will gladly answer any queries you may have. You never know, you could find yourself walking away with one of our trophies at the end of the season.
