18.5m Hilly Time Trial Results 24/9/17

The final North Norfolk Wheelers time trial of the season took place on Sunday.  This was a challenging 18.5 mile hilly course taking in short climbs up to Weybourne and Kelling Heath, and faster flatter sections of main road from Holt to Upper Sheringham and along the coast road.  There was a strong head wind up the hills and a bit of traffic on the main road (as is normal nowadays) but at least the sun was out!

Mike Padfield of North Norfolk Wheelers did the course in 46.59 (an average of 23.6 mph) to get the win and a PB by over 1 minute, followed by Ben Keeley (Team Velo-Velocity) in 49.23 and Phil Watkins (34 Nomads) in 50.23.  A number of club riders were also in action at the Woodlands ‘Super Sprint’ Triathlon in the morning with Amanda Marshall winning her age-group and John Morgan 5th overall and 2nd in his age group (who also did the Hilly TT).

Thanks to the marshalls, timekeepers and assistants for helping out and for propping up the bin at the finish!

See you at the AGM/Annual Dinner this winter (timing tbc) and for another year of racing from April 2018…

**Marshalls Needed this Sunday**

We need two marshalls for the club 18.5m hilly TT on Sunday – 2pm to about 3pm. No previous training required. Meet at Henries next to Splash in Sheringham at about 1.30pm. Please email David Carrier if available, thanks.  shortandcrisp@hotmail.co.uk

15m TT Aylmerton-Holt 17/9/17

With an earlier 15m TT cancelled this reserve date was used.  As expected on a Sunday numbers were down on normal, but just out-numbered the timekeepers and marshalls.  A cool northerly wind, lots of cars, vintage buses and wet roads from a previous shower added to the interest!

Mike Padfield beat his PB by 29 seconds (to set a tough time to beat next year), followed by Aiden Bond (34.24) and John Morgan (36.02).  Everyone made it round ok despite a few stops behind turning cars.

Don’t forget the final time trial of the year is a 18.5 m hilly next Sunday 24th September at 2pm starting at Splash, Sheringham (sign on by 1.30pm).  Treat it as a time trial, warm down after the Woodlands Triathlon, a race against your mates or a cheap sportive… Club members and all guests welcome!
