Nev Brooks Memorial Trophy 2026

Nev Brooks was a long time Club Member who sadly passed away in January 2018.  Nev enjoyed all forms of cycling, including the Hunter and Timson Cup handicapped TT events.

In his memory, The Nev Brooks Memorial Trophy is awarded each season on a handicapped basis to establish the most improved first claim rider across the Club’s 10 mile TTs . It’s a great competition for riders starting their first TT season, looking to improve or on the comeback trail.

The Nev Brooks Memorial Trophy captures overall improvement irrespective of age, gender or type of bike used across a rider’s best ten events.

• The rider’s handicap time is calculated based on the rider’s best 10 time in the series to date each year against a base of 16:35.
• So, at their first 10 of the year, if a rider achieves time of 26:35, their handicap will be 10:00 .  If at the next race, the rider achieves 26:00, their handicap becomes 9:25  etc.
• Points are awarded on the same basis as the rest of the Series (60, 55, 51, 48, 46, 44, 42, 40, then 39 through to 1).
• The best 11  results count, and rider with the most points at the end of the series will be awarded the Trophy.
