KCA 12 Hour CoursePlease note that the course details previously shown on the website were the 2009 version. In 2009 the event avoided Tenterden due to road works. At present the intention is for riders to use the Tenterden circuit in 2010. The course details on the web site are now correct. |
New KCA web siteAs part of a tidying up of all the various sites linked to the KCA this is the final stage with a new design for the main site. The old site was built as a a temporray measure because of problems with the company that was hosting the site. Unfortunately the problems with the company affected 5 sites I look after. I hope that the new site will be more attractive and interesting. I expect there will be a few teething problems so if you spot anything amiss please email me. |
New 12 Hour WebsiteWe have just finished work on revamping the KCA 12 Hour web site. The work has also inlcuded updating the 12 Hour Archive. The next stage will be to bring the main KCA site upto date. I must apologise for the lack of information on the current site. This was built as a temporray measure because of problems with the company that was hosting the site previously. I hope that the new site will be more attractive and interesting The KCA 12 Archive now enables you to look more easily by club, individual, distance and event. There is also the start of a list of officials. There is more work to be done to add actual result sheets, more information on the officials and pictures. I have a huge amount of material so this will take a while but the design of the site now means information can be added as I have time. It may be possible to extend the 12 Archive to cover moe of the KCA's past, but that is another project in itself. Tim |
SEAN YATES' KCA COMPETITION 50 RECORD BROKEN AFTER 14 YEARSSean set this record in 1996 when riding for Motorola with a 1.47.53. It was obviously set in our Open 50 but I do not have details to hand as to which course he set it on. It was certainly not the latest version of the Q50/11 as this version was new this year. It has taken a superb ride by Kevin Tye of 1.46.42 on Q50/11 to beat Sean's time so Kevin is the course record holder for Q50/11 as well as holding the Individual Men's 50 Record on any course in a KCA event. He was over the moon with his ride at the KCA event & said he had dreamed of breaking Sean's record for years, so we offer him our sincere congratulations. Pat Hill |
