Results
About 36h before the event was scheduled there were two sets of traffic lights set to be installed on the course. As per usual, it seemed, Anglian Water had looked at our TT calendar before planning their roadworks! However, and most fortunately, by the time I returned from a morning tandem ride, the dates had been pushed back a week. So, not only was it a gloriously warm and sunny evening but there was no issue with the course.
We had 15 riders enter the third event in our series of evening time trials, but three didn't start. On the main results table, Stuart Wright took the win by 12 seconds over Rob Saunders and by 48 seconds over third placed Chris Old. Fastest woman was Steph Cousins. A special call-out to Isaac Barral, who seems to be going from strength to strength in his first season of road time trials. At this rate Lindz won't be able to keep up.
On veteran standard Rob Saunders took the win over Stuart, with Richard Moule taking third place. Steph took the win on women's vet standard.
Well done all, and thanks to Dick Selley for the sign placement and timekeeping, and to Rob Saunders for the IT work.
