Ian O’Hara sent a mail shot around to club members a while ago to see if anyone was interested in riding this event. He has a confirmed group of 10 riding (some club members some not) and the event organiser has now announced that entry on the line will be available. If you would like to contact Ian please email this site and we will forward the messages to him.

This year is the 80th Anniversary of Sydenham Wheelers and to celebrate the occasion we are planning on making the John Tully Memorial Open 25 on Sunday 24th April on the Q25/20 course an event to remember. There is guaranteed minimum prize fund of £300, with £80 going to the fastest rider. This event is being promoted with the kind support of Citihub and Catch Recruitment without whom we would not have been able to offer such a great prize list.

It’s that time of year again and reliability rides are about to start. Below are details of the dates as far as we know!
