David Addaway Trophy and Sportive Trophy

The last two trophies to be decided for the 2009 season have gone to Peter Bell and Robin Smith.

Peter Bell won the Best Member award after a Club vote while Robin topped the Sportive Trophy with 448 miles. Well done to both of them.

We were particularly pleased to see the Sportive Trophy well supported with 11 members taking part in Sportives this year. Second was Neil Campbell with 427 miles and third was Ian Blatchford with 406 miles. Full results here http://www.maidenheadcc.org.uk/sportive.html

Sue Bennett-Snewin

MDCC lady member Sue took a fall while out riding on New Year's Eve. It meant a visit to casualty and treatment for cuts and bruises, one to her head as she wasn't wearing a helmet. Sue is OK and recovering. We hope to see her out on her bike again soon.
