The long weekend meant low numbers at the Triangle, despite good fast conditions. Those that did turn up made the most of it, most notably the guest rider George Peden.
Four years ago Tom Pidcock broke an 18 year old record for the course. With a remarkable ride, Peden took a further 15 seconds off Pidcock’s time, with 24:47, to be the first rider to go under 25mins for the 12.5mile course.
Fastest OCC rider was Jon Hobbs with 30:06, strengthening his position at the top of the points competition. Tony Wild took maximum points on the day.
Next week is the first of three Hilly events, starting at Farnley. Details of remaining events are listed here. The marshaling sign up sheet is here.
