New to time trials?
Tempted to give it a go?
Maybe you have questions/worries?
We are here for you.
In order to try and put on the best event we can, we asked our members for their feelings and concerns before their first time trial and below are some of their concerns and also what we are doing to help.
"I can't compete with those fast riders"
Watching the fastest riders going around the course, whilst impressive, it can also be intimidating. Luckily, you don't have to keep up with them!
The beauty of time trialling is that it is
YOU AGAINST THE CLOCK
Come along, set yourself a time. If you enjoy it (we believe you will) and race again, you can set yourself a target of beating that time.
"I am worried about getting lost out on the course"
Noone wants to get lost and especially so when racing against the clock. We have marshals at the start line, finish line and every turn between the two.
If you want to see the course on a map, course details are on the CTT website
How about this, come out and try the course with us
The best way to know the course is by joining us in riding it. Join us to ride the course on 17th March. Meet us at the HQ (Canewdon Village Hall, SS4 3PG) and we will take you round the course.

"I want to give it a go but I have no idea what I need to do"
We are available to help you through this whole event.
Before hand, use this handy guide to help you prepare.
On the day, arrive in plenty of time so you can sign on, get your race numbers, warm up and then it is race time. There will be people everywhere that can help. Look for anyone with Southend Wheelers kit/clothing on and they will be more than happy to help.
After the race we will celebrate the winners whilst enjoying a hot drink and cake!
Still have questions and/or concerns? Contact the event organiser, Matthew by email.
"You have convinced me, how do I sign up?"

You can sign on and pay on the day. It really is as simple as turning up, signing on and riding.
