​

from Brian Churchill:

​

​

It is with great sadness that I have to announce the death of my father, Peter Churchill.

He never turned a pedal in anger himself but immersed himself in cycling as a race organiser, club official & helper in the late 70's and early 80’s.

​

He took over the running of the professional 'Norwich City Centre Races', organised the National Schoolboy Road Race Championship and the 'Tour of Norfolk' stage race. He was also Club Secretary for 20 years (1978-98).

​

He was a great support to me ferrying me around to races the length and breadth of the country as a junior. His last few years had been a struggle, dementia had gotten hold of him and robbed him of his memory but it was good to get him talking and enjoying the things he could recall.

​

Rest in peace Dad x
