Ross Cycling Club played host to the local time trial season grand finale of the year in glorious sunny conditions on the Much Marcle circuit last Sunday.

Unlike normal cycling time trial racing; very much for individual riders, the Vintage Tankard is a three-way club competition where teams from Ross, Newport and The Forest of Dean put out a squad of riders. The combined time clocked by the fastest six riders from each club over the 19.5 mile course count to determine which team is the overall fastest and will walk away with the silverware.
