Biography
Born in Cheadle, Cheshire (now in Greater Manchester), England, Herety joined Cheshire Road Club as a young teenager.[5] His first win was in a Scouts' cyclo-cross race in Woodbank Park, Stockport.[6] He was coached by Harold "H" Nelson and trained regularly with other local riders destined for professional careers, notably Graham Jones, Paul Sherwen and Ian Binder. Further success followed as a junior. He was known as a sprinter but he also won after breaking clear of the main field.[7]
He came third in the in 1980 British National Road Race Championships and won the Manx Trophy. Herety, a chef, received a set of chef's knives when he won a stage of the 1980 Peace Race in Karl-Marx-Stadt (now Chemnitz), a city proud of its steelworks.[6] Herety finished 21st in the road race at the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow, the race was won by Sergei Sukhoruchenkov.[8]
He then joined the French team, Athletic Club Boulogne-Billancourt in Paris, Europe's most successful sports club with fellow British riders Sean Yates and Jeff Williams.[9] Herety won his second race for the ACBB which was a circuit of Toulon finishing in a bunch sprint.[10] Herety spent one season with the ACBB and was offered a professional contract with Mercier riding alongside Joop Zoetemelk.[9] In 1982 he had hoped to get a ride in the Tour de France.[11] However, a poor performance in the Tour de l' Aude resulted in him not being selected by the Coop-Mercier manager Jean–Pierre Danguillame.[11] Herety subsequently returned to England and won the Professional British National Road Race Championships.[7] He also had success in the Grand Prix Pino Cerami finishing second after being outsprinted from a small group of riders by Ronny Van Holen.[11] However, after three seasons with Mercier he had reached a level that he was unable to improve on.[12] Herety explained: “My trouble is that I can’t recover quickly enough after a hard stage race or a race." "When I’ m racing abroad that is no good, with so many races to ride one after the other.”[12] In 1985 he consequently decided to join the British-based professional team Ever Ready allowing him to race on the weekends and if needed have the whole week to recover.[12] In 1986 he then joined Percy Bilton riding alongside Bob Downs and Steve Joughin. The following season he won a stage in the Milk Race and was runner up in the British National Road Race Championships. John owed his successes to his powerful sprint.[6] However, his inability to climb and recover during hard stage races limited his palmares.[12] Herety was not a general classification rider – evidence his 52nd overall in the 1984 Sealink International.[12]
"I don't see myself going on like this, getting so little back for the effort I put in. In France, racing most days, I just can't get the results"
John Herety[12]
Herety became team manager of the Percy Bilton team after his racing career. He went on to become director of racing for British Cycling.[6] He resigned following an inquiry into the 2005 UCI Road World Championships in Madrid, when Charly Wegelius and Tom Southam were alleged to have helped Italian riders rather than those in the British team.[2] He was manager of Recycling.co.uk in 2006 and 2007, for 2008 this evolved into You have called {{Contentious topics}}.
