In Gear's Peter Tadros from Pett stormed round the rural Tenterden 10 course to record a superb time of 20.53 and win Southborough Wheeler's Saturday afternoon event by a clear minute on a glorious warm day. Most riders have to seek out drag strip courses on dual carriageways to produce an average speed of 29 mph over ten miles but Tadros is one of the few that can do it on more sporting courses.
Ivan Johnson (24.11) was Hastings and St Leonards Cycling Club's top rider in 17th place with Simon Newell (24.53) and Malcolm Daly (25.14 setting a PB by well over a minute) completing the team of three.
Joe Jenner 25.28 was first placed junior and overall 35th some six minutes quicker than the same event last year and on his first competitive ride on a time trial bike setting a PB by nearly one minute.
Also riding for Hastings were Dave Dixon (26.19), Mark Corliss (26.35), Nick Neale (26.52), Tim Miles (28.22), Chris Parker (30.17) and 1066 triathlete Maxine Simmonds (32.09) who was riding her first cycling only event and was one of the 15 women to finish, the fastest being Bronwen Ewing (23.38) from Hastings riding for Rye Wheelers and being placed 14th.
