40th Overall / 6th Vet )O40) / 1st Age Cat (National Gold)
Pleased to have collected another National award, this time at the RTTC National 10m TT Champs....managed to sneak under 20mins @ 19-57 in challenging windy conditions (27mph avg out, 34+ back),good enough not only for my age cat but faster than the two categories younger, also 6th Vet (O40) and a commendable 40th overall.
Such were the conditions for the senior men that only four riders broke 19mins with the surprise winner being Charlie Quarterman, a pro rider for Trek-Segafredo (and dare I say 40 years my junior 
) followed by pre race favourites Chris Fennell and Adam Duggleby.

Great banter in the HQ post race - particularly good to catch up with occasional Mallorca cycle training partner Roland....and hey!, Tony Cork, get that bloody A14 sorted, if it wasn’t for my ‘smart’ Google Maps I probably would have missed the start. 😱
Next week, leaving the youngsters to their own, with another National Championships up at Teeside...this time the VTTA flavour, veterans and the rarely raced 15miler 👍
[Actually a top performance, the wind was awful going out - and worse for later starters...but had some real quality behind me on actual times, but to win National age medal but also be faster than 2 age groups below and 6th overall was for an old git, top bombing 🚴♂️💨💨]
