George Hunton, Vice-President
Anyone in contact with the Association over the past 40 or so years will have known of George personally, by name or by reputation as a timekeeper, course-measurer and Secretary from 1978-86. With great sadness, we report his passing on 1st December. He was 85 and had been ill for only a short time. Retirement from the Committee just a few years ago did not mean slowing down his active life in 'cycling, and he was out timing Club events during the summer. George was the man who brought many riders into the record-breaking arena - the names of Cottington, Noad, Pitt and Dadswell are just some who responded to his gentle persuasion and expert guidance.
