A field of 74 riders on a cool & blustery evening down at Salt Ayre last night, although it stayed dry for all but the last few riders.
 
10 youngsters rode the 2 mile distance, with Luke Oakes coming out top by just 5 seconds in 6:27. Max Davies finished second in 6:32 & John Bardsley third in 6:43; with Megan Howarth fastest of the girls in 7:07. But as always, well done to all the littler ones for having a good go at this distance; it's great to see them spinning round the track at the start of the evening.
 
A good field of 27 riders at 6 miles, with a range of experiences mixing nicely on the track. The fastest of the bunch was Guy Jones in 17:29 from James McCracken in 17:48 & Christopher Eaton in 17:52; with Sasha Oldham the fastest girl not very far behind in 18:09 & 5th overall.
 
The battle at the top of the 10 mile leader board continued this week, although with big racing commitments just ahead the fastest younger riders were absent. Tom Phillips in 22:51 got the better of Lynn Hamel in 23:18, with Steve Hodgson 3rd in 23:47. It'll be fascinating to see whose times come down, and by how much, over the next few months, especially if/when we get a warm & calm evening, as surely we're bound to do! Alison Oldham was fastest woman in 27:16.
 
Of the two 2-up teams, Tim Norton & Tom Oldham looked good together in their ride of 24:26, but things didn't go so well for Ian Sibbert & Kevin Lindeque, although Ian continued alone to record a solo time of 23:48.
