On behalf of Hafren Cycling Club, I would just like to pass on our sympathy to Gordon and Tony Brooks and all the family to the sad news of the passing of Vera, or Gran as she was fondly know to all at the club.
She passed away peacefully yesterday morning after a long battle with illness and will be dearly missed.
Our thoughts are with you all at this difficult time. ...
This weeks club run in Newtown is cancelled.
However as a club, Hafren will be supporting Oswestry Paragon's reliability trial at Llanyblodwel.

Then riding down together ... Picking people up on route and this will be sorted on the day as required.
Don't forget your £2:50 entry free and please remember club colours.

For the second year in succession Hafren C.C. have failed to attract enough entries to proceed with the planned LVRC promotion, which was due to take place on 18th May 2014.
At the time of writing we have secured just 31 entries across all age categories A to H, meaning that we were unable to provide a credible race in any of our 3 planned events.
It is true to say that we would probably have had a few more entries arrive in the next 2 weeks, but when
After months of discussing bike modifications, wheel choice, tyre choice, tyre pressure, bar phat, double bar tape, bottle cages etc, etc……the time for talking was over as Des Pugh, Chris Roberts and myself (Darren Jarman) headed off to take on the cobbles of the famous Paris-Roubaix bike race. We were taking on the ultimate challenge of riding the 170k from Busigny to Roubaix on the same course as the pros would race the following day. Despite the forec...

Sunday was the final round of the Welsh CX series which was held at Llandaff Campus in Cardiff. Having spent 4 years studying there it should have been home turf advantage. However it appears that the sports field was located beyond the campus bar and therefore this was my first visit.
Completing his first season in cx Max Bufton went off in the under 8's and made short work of the off-camber technical sections. He is hoping santa will bring him a cx bi...
12 members of the Hafren Cycling Club headed over to the Welsh Cyclo-cross championships being held at the Royal Welsh Showground in Llanelwedd last weekend and found the going difficult on a tough and technical course. Many of the members have only got into the sport fairly recently and for many this was their first race. With this being the Welsh championships, the standard of rider competing was quite simply the best of the best, and with that ...
Right then Roadies......
A number of you have already expressed an interest in this event, so I have spoken to the organiser(s) of the LVRC Pinvin RR - 22nd/23rd March next year to confirm details etc.
This is the first Region 6 race of the year and is always oversubscribed which is why they are now running two events - Sat & Sun - so they can double the number of riders they can accommodate over the weekend.
Saturday is for A/B/C category riders
