Rob is the Club's BAR champion, and has won the M&DTTA's points series in 2004. Has purchased a new Giant for next season, so be warned! Rob's wish to fly with the Red Arrows came to fruition near Hartington, witnessed by some equally impressed judges. He bent a wheel recently, attempting to traverse a lock over the Weaver. Whilst everyone walked across, the "expert" decided to show his skills, only to trap his front wheel in the groove on the lock. I wish I'd have seen that! Rob has been the holder of the "Wobbly Wheeler" award for the last couple of years, bringing down numerous members and non-members. A dubious title, but gladly passed on by Brendan.
