Competitive Cycling for Life ^
Mark Vowells won the event on Vets’ Handicap Result for the second time, riding a Trike. He was just 2 seconds off the VTTA National Trike age record. Nick Dwyer was second for DRAG2ZERO and Peter Younghushand (Petersfield Tri) fittingly third.
The women’s category was very close with only 3 seconds on VHT separating the top 3. Lisa Davis was the winner for DRAG2ZERO. Unsurprisingly D2Z took with Club Team award with Brett keeping it in the family.
The closeness in the women’s category is demonstrated by the fact that the next 2 women were equal on VHT. This has the interesting quirk that Joy Paynes and Danuta Tinn share the London & Home Counties Don Byham Trophy, for the second best LHC rider on Standard Plus/Minus. They will be fighting over who gets the cup and who gets the base at the LH&C Annual Luncheon and Prize Presentation.
The 3 tandems seem to have a jolly time and Richard May and Davis Shannon (Islington CC and EA) were very pleased to be fastest, but only by 1 second. Andrew & Catherine (Lowestoft Wheelers & LHC).
