“Sunday 5 August will be forty years to the day since Alf Engers became the first person to break the 50 minute barrier, stopping the clock at 49-24. It's a landmark ride.

This year the 25 Championship falls on the same day. What are the chances?

To commemorate his awesome feat and celebrate time trialling and the fellowship of cycling, Alf Engers will be guest of honour and presenting the prizes.

Look forward to seeing you all there!”
