It wasn’t the rain holding off or the new roundabout on the Holt bypass that was the topic of conversation for the 6 brave souls who road the first 15 mile TT of the season. The 4 C weather plus northerly wind chill which had the riders shivering and shaking after the race. Needless to say, nobody got under 39 minutes and with so many riders away, Nigel Walsh was best with a time of 39m19s. Kudos goes to Trini Middleton on getting under 58 mins on her first 15 mile TT. It is a difficult distance to pace when the body is used to a diet of 10 miles.
