The Spindle FEBRUARY 2018 Cycleclubsudbury.Com
The Spindle FEBRUARY 2018 cycleclubsudbury.com We’ve had a real mixed bag of weather lately with all the extremes being covered. One day it’s almost Spring-like with the next the exact opposite. But it’s not stopping our Sunday Club riders (20+ some weeks) who are out in force, usually in two groups; fast and less fast! A brilliant effort by all those involved. An excellent showing also from some of our members (40) on last Sundays Reliability Ride including some first timers who I hope enjoyed themselves (despite the tough wind back) Organiser David Fenn has a few words of thanks to the small army of helpers that ensured the day went well... I just want to thank you all for your invaluable assistance on Sunday. Your help is what makes for a successful event promotion whether you were helping in the car park, signing on or in the Kitchen making cups of tea and coffee and not forgetting those ladies who kindly baked a cake or two. You all performed at the top of your game, are a credit to the club and made my life a lot easier on the day, thank you. I can confirm the donations for food and drinks amounted to £98.00 which will be donated to East Anglia Children’s Hospices along with a top up to £200.00 from the entry fees. David Fenn So, back to a more fulsome Spindle this month (stop groaning!) Some great articles from my regular contributors including a truly amazing and nostalgic Rider Profile from a former Superstar Rider. -

Rennen! Races! Vitesse! Racing Circuits Netherlands Belgium Germany Austria Luxembourg Switzerland Rob Semmeling Rennen! Races! Vitesse! Page 2 Contents Foreword 3 Netherlands 5 Belgium 44 Germany 78 Austria 133 Luxembourg & Switzerland 148 Copyright © Rob Semmeling 2009-2016 / all rights reserved www.wegcircuits.nl Rennen! Races! Vitesse! Page 3 Foreword Motorsport essentially consists of three ingredients. First, you need a motor vehicle - which can be anything from a Formula 1 car to a lawn mower, or from a MotoGP motorcycle to a pocket bike. Second, you need a driver or rider to operate the vehicle, and finally, a place to go racing - a circuit. To most people this last ingredient is probably the least interesting. The number of books about famous racing drivers and cars, or great riders and their motorcycles, is far larger than the number of books about racing circuits. However, to me circuits are the most interesting aspect of motorsport, for two main reasons. First is their great diversity: in terms of shape, layout, length, difficulty, fame and many other factors, every circuit is different, and each has its own story to tell. Second, it is fascinating to see just how many circuits there are. Once you start looking, you can find them just about any- where. Finding lost circuits or discovering long-forgotten tracks is one of the most fun aspects of researching racing circuits. When looking for information about racing circuits online, I often found it frustrating that the available sources were not complete, and that they often lacked detail and accuracy. This is one of the reasons why I started my website www.wegcircuits.nl and why I made Rennen! Races! Vitesse! - a downloadable pdf-file that lists racing circuits of past and present in four European countries: the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and Austria. -

As I have to work for a living I only caught snatches of a couple, but that included a history of the Clarion cycling club. I was amused to hear that the Clarion members thought that the CTC was only for the rich and professional classes, ‘all accountants and solicitors’ and put it about that CTC stood for the Collar and Tie Club! Still on the subject of history, as more details emerge of the 2012 Olympics cycling events - the velodrome (or The Pringle to its friends) being the first finished building, the road racing events passing through Surrey - I surfed the ’net to find out more about the previous London Olympics, in 1948. -

Home World Companies Markets Global Economy Lex Comment Management Life & Arts Arts FT Magazine Food & Drink House & Home Style Books Pursuits Sport Travel Columnists How To Spend It Tools November 29, 2013 6:16 pm Books of the Year From the Great War to the gardens of Venice, the best books of 2013 as chosen by FT writers and guests E CONOMICS The Bankers’ New Clothes: What’s Wrong with Banking and What to Do About It, by Anat Admati and Martin Hellwig, Princeton, RRP£19.95/$29.95 This is the most important book to have come out of the financial crisis. It argues, convincingly, that the problem with banks is that they operate with vastly insufficient levels of equity capital, relative to their assets. Targeting return on equity, without consideration of risk, allows bankers to pay themselves egregiously, while making their institutions and the economy hugely unstable. Why Growth Matters: How Economic Growth in India Reduced Poverty and the Lessons for Other Developing Countries, by Jagdish Bhagwati and Arvind Panagariya, PublicAffairs, RRP£19.99/$28.99 Economic growth benefits the poor: that is this book’s theme. It is impossible to eliminate mass destitution in countries with low average incomes. So growth is a necessary condition for poverty alleviation. Is it also a sufficient condition? Again, yes, provided market-led liberalisation is sufficiently broad. India’s experience over the past two decades demonstrates this conclusively. After the Music Stopped: The Financial Crisis, the Response, and the Work Ahead, by Alan Blinder, Penguin, RRP$29.95 The best account I have read of the US financial crisis. -
