NN Wheelers at the Lotus TT

Posted on by Admin

On the 12th July 2025 two club riders Phil Hurr (VET60+) and Mike Padfield (VET50+) raced on the Lotus test track at Hethel on an 11 mile (5 lap) TT course. This was a chance to ride a traffic free course with a very smooth surface (no pot-holes here!). It is laid to F1 standard (which is no more than 25mm surface variation over 25 metres..). Lotus League has only ever run 2 TT’s prior to this in 2014 and 2015 where the club then had a 4-up team racing.

There was a good turnout with about 50 riders. Mike was 4th overall with a time of 24.24, with Phil 20th in a time of 27.00. Thanks to Lex spedding photography for photos.

The Lotus League is looking to run more TTs next year so hopefully we can race there again next year.

NN Wheelers Hill Climb Results

Results of the club hill climb saw 10 riders battle up the 900 yard* climb at West Runton (*as an official hill climb no. BHC/5 these were all measured in yards.) Although there was a headwind there were some good times on this tricky course. Thanks to the timekeepers and riders.
