Trophy history:
The Half Wheel Trophy
In 1971, the Half Wheel Trophy was produced by Tommy Vietch, as a joking gesture to give to members who had the habit of “half-wheeling” the rider in front. It was a little bit “tungue in cheek”, but still made it into the Club handbook from 1971 to 2012.
Changed in 2022 for the club Volunteering for the club.
