The Club’s committee met this week (3/7/2023) and reluctantly decided that with too few riders for the Fenland Flyer Gravel Time-Trial the whole event was not viable to go ahead.
The event was due to take place on Sunday 16th July at West Row Village Hall and unfortunately includes the cancellation of the Table-Top Sale, that had had a good take-up.
“It was not a decision we took lightly but the last thing we want to do is for the Club to make a loss and it isn’t fair on our supporters who had donated prizes or sponsorship money.” explained Mark Burchett, Mildenhall Cycling Club Chairman.
“It is very disappointing to have to take this step after all the efforts of everyone at the Club who has been involved in the planning for this year’s event. We will now start looking ahead to next year’s event which I am confident will see the return of Grass-Track racing. “ he added.
The Club will be refunding the entry-fees to those who had entered the Gravel Time-Trial or had booked a table the Table-Top sale.
