This week, it was back to the regular 10 mile time trial at Betteshanger CP. Conditions were reasonable but not quite up to the best we have had so far this year. It was dry, cloudy and quite breezy, but a couple of riders got close to recording PBs. Nina Reid equalled her PB, while Mat Lister was just one second shy of his. The field consisted of 14 senior riders and 4 juniors.
As we have come to expect, our fastest junior rider once again was Dougie Tulett with good time of 22.57. In second place was the first girl rider, Nina Reid, in a time of 27.50.
Mat Lister topped the times of the senior riders with a fine 21.53, just over a minute ahead of Simon Henderson, who recorded 22.54 for second place. And with a time of 26.38 in fifth place was the first of the female riders, Faye Faiers.
Times of all riders can be found in the accompanying table.
As always, we must thank our band of helpers who ensure that the event can take place. This week, they were Andy McCall, Terry Fearn and Dave Mastin.
