New faces, returning faces, 11 racers, 10 finishers... this time trial had a little bit of everything.
A huge welcome to new legends, Adam and Christine who both performed well on their first outing. A shout out also goes to Ramesh who is surely talking himself into a cycling return having turned up to help with the timekeeping!
Hanna and McGandy were the fastest two on the night, with Pollock completing the podium. McCormick did superbly on his first run finishing with an impressive 37:07 and Clarke, our other new legend proving that she's not here to make up the numbers with a time of 43:19.
Unfortunately, not everyone rode the course as it was meant to be ridden. Purnell gets the years first DNL - Did Not Listen.. imagine the surprise of McGandy and others, seeing Purnell coming down the Heron Road the wrong way.. its a pity as Purenll's time would surely have been in the mix on the podium.
