H&StL CC’s Wednesday evening Ninfield Oak TT 25 May

Good weather Wednesday afternoon encouraged 12 riders to ride the short Ninfield course in the evening, the traffic lights having been removed last week for the Rovers version of the course on Thursday then reinstated down the road on Friday  ……

Seven of the riders who rode last week’s short course went quicker, so it was a good evening, with just one rider from last week being seconds down on last week.

In Gear’s Pete Tadros (18.15) posted the quickest time again with his 14 year old son Theo (21.37) producing a very impressive ride to record the second best time.  Pete has been winning and getting top places in Open TTs in the South for some years but one or two younger riders are now pushing him hard, how many years before Theo is quicker than Dad ?!!?

Ivan Johnson (21.46) won the club event ahead of Jon Molton (22.03) and 14 year old Fabien Large (22.10).

 Ollie Chapman (27.52) rode his first TT of the year but had some problems with his bike.  Although still classed as a junior in CTT events Ollie has now turned 18.
