Heavy rain didn’t deter 23 riders from tackling the final 10k time trial of the season this evening, and they were rewarded with a low resistance road surface and a slight tailwind. Fastest was once again Mark Kane (Northern), although brother Paul is getting closer – just 11 seconds behind.
William Gill was fastest of the Ards riders, just edging out Mark Watson who has been improving steadily all season.
Chris Speers was first on handicap, and all 6 points scorers beat their previous personal bests. However, it was Peter Scott with 3rd place this time to add to his win on handicap in the last 10k, who takes the 10k handicap trophy this year.
It was great to see past chairman Bobby Magreechan down tonight helping with the pushing off. Thanks also to the time keepers Graeme, Bernard and Ron.
