Welcome all to our first edition of the John Burgess memorial road race.
It is a sad and unfortunate day which we will celebrate in honour of a great man who is so sadly missed.
John was an integral part of the SBCC for many years who enjoyed every part of cycling and the comradery that flowed with it.
He was a kind and wonderful man in every aspect of life who loved his family and his cycling family so dearly.
I’m sure he will be smiling from above as we celebrate his special day 🚴☀️

*For those of you who wish to attend the race, could you please reply through the teamapp attendance button ASAP and state your intentions.
