Until his untimely death at the age of 50 in 1998, Fred Whitton was an extremely popular member of the Lakes Road Club. In his capacity as club secretary he was full of enthusiasm for the club & ran it practically single handedly. He was the organiser of the Lakes Road Club Easter 3-day each year which attracted many of the UKs top riders.
Not only was Fred the main instigator behind all the clubs activities, he was always there on the club runs & training weekends, cracking a joke, having a laugh & generally enjoying the sport to the full.

Amongst all this, Fred also managed to find the time to be the Lakes & Lanc's Division Road Race Secretary & was well known & liked throughout North West cycling circles.
