Last night saw a number of riders brave the warm conditions for two laps of the Triangle course, in the 25 TT Championship
With several trophies on offer, lots of strong rides came out. Fastest on the night was Sam Ward with a blistering 53:21, and taking the men’s overall competition. It was also big enough an improvement on previous rides to take the handicap competition. Fastest woman in the championship was Helen Goldthorpe in 1:06:14. Congratulations to all of our competition winners.
In the Triangle points competition (using a slightly different handicap), maximum points went to Ian Cullen. After this race, the battle for the top is tight between Sam Ward and Jon Hobbs, with a single point separating them. Numerous riders are in contention for the remaining podium spot, so all still to play for.
Stand out ride of the night though, has to go to guest rider and professional triathlete Ruth Astle. With the women’s record for one lap having been reduced by nearly a minute last week, Ruth took another 41s off that in the first lap (28:29), and went on to ride a 57:40 for the full 25! Very well done to Ruth.
Next week sees a return to the Hilly 14 course. As ever, if you can help to marshal, please get in touch.
Thanks to all volunteers, and well done to the racers
