Of the 60 riders who signed on for Burton’s Plan B Racing’s Reliability Trials held at the Forestry Centre at Rosliston. Eight were from the Mercia HBM Cycling Club. The route of the 50km circuit went out to Whittington via Catton Park & Whitemoor into a very strong headwind. The wind was more helpful after turning left in Whittington to go through Fisherwick to Elford, then to No Man’s Heath riding through Harlaston, Haunton & Clifton Campville.
