GS Stella TT: 1 February 2009

Job done. We (AW Cycle RT) took the team award - finishing top team - by a mile. Today we all rode like champions. Other than Simon who was penalised for a late start we seemed to get our rides spot on.

Organisation
I don't often write about event organisers, but this time I feel compelled to. Mark has been running this event for many years now so testament to his committment to the sport of cycling. Any rider or spectator taking part in the GS Stella knows it's the most well run event around. From entries (and understanding) to HQ venues and results posting - everything is simply perfect. Then there's the sponsorship - he single-handedly secured very generous sponsorship even despite the economic issues we're facing. So, I'd personally like to say thanks to Mark and his team of helpers for putting on a fantastic event.
