An overcast evening on the P128 course, taking in three laps of the Copythorne, Cadnam, Netley March circuit, saw a tight contest for honours amongst the top 3 riders, in this year’s club championship 25 mile time trial. However youth triumphed over experience on this occasion with 31 year old Jeremy Hubbard coming out on top by half a minute from veteran clubmates Phil Wilks and Mike Marsh.

63 year old Jon Dudley stormed round for fourth place in the championship with his 1.0.58 relegating many times past club 25 mile champion Graham Harman to an unaccustomed fifth place.

Crabwood CC also incorporated their 25 mile championship into the event and it was the evergreen 80 year old Dave England who came out top in that contest.

Thanks to Nick Wisby for putting on the event and also to the timekeepers and marshals, Mary Corbett, Norman Harvey, Martin Napier, Dave Crocker, Nigel Aiken, Claire Newman and Julian Gee.
