The Alan Rosner Memorial Meeting

Today the late Alan Rosner's memory was honoured by the inaugural Memorial Meeting at The Redbridge Cycle Centre. A well organised programme of races for all categories and ages went ahead. Many of the riders and supporters (myself included) have memories of Alan's commitment and passion for the sport he loved.
A new bench with a plaque bearing his name was unveiled near the summit of the Hogenberg after the E123 race finished. This race was notable because two of Hackney's finest cyclists Alex Peters (Genisis Maddison) and his old school (Stoke Newington) mate Tao Geoghegan Hart (CC Hackney) were back together again giving it ten off the front and creating a buzz for the spectators.
