Message from organiser Graham Sims
There are still some places left in the Tysoe Road Race scheduled for Sunday 21st March - now the nice weather has arrived we could do with some extra entries from the D E and F cats please.
Our club, Stratford CC is running the National 10m TT this year in May when we usually hold our vets race so rather than not have the Tysoe event, and after requests at the AGM for more races, our club has fitted this extra one in so we now need support from you racers!Graham can be contacted on graesims@tesco.net

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!!
Want to be involved in world-class leading sports science research?
We are looking for volunteers to participate in our study investigating the effects of insulin resistance on the elderly in comparison to younger subjects.
This research is led by a world-class research team from the Research Institute for Sport & Exercise Sciences (RISES) at Liverpool John Moores University.
Participants will gain an insight into how insulin resistance can affect heath and exercise performance in both the elderly and the young.
Requirements:
We are looking for subjects who fall within the following criteria :-

Subjects will fall into two categories, the elderly group must be aged >60 years old and the young group aged between 19-30 years old.
• Must be non-smokers, free of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, hypertension and not taking any medications known to influence glucose metabolism.
• Must be involved in some form of regular exercise training at least 3 times per week.


Potential Benefits
• Assessment of aerobic capacity, which could be used for any future training
• Indicate whether you are insulin resistant and give advice on interventions usedto alleviate the condition.

03/03/2010 - IMPORTANT NOTE TO ORGANISERS
Last season thanks to the co-operation of race organisers the majority of results from our races up and down the country appeared on the website and in the VL. This year if they can send them to me and to Andy Barrett, the VL editor in as full a form as possible, with if possible a short report, perhaps we can reach 100% of our events appearing. Thank you.
