I was there in May 2014.
The memorial service was on the Sunday morning.
18 May 2014
3rd Sunday in May.

I took part in a 101.06mile audax on the Saturday, and was riding south to Bedford early on the Sunday, so wasn't in attendance for the service.

Although we no longer have anything to do with the CTC event the Heart of England Cycling Club Audax Rides are on Saturday 20 May 2017 ( http://www.heartofenglandcyclingclub.or ... audax-2016 ) which means that the service will be on Sunday 21 May 2017.

Thank you for that. I Knew it was around that time but thought it clashed with the TT, which it does not so will be able to ride down for the service.
