updated East Devon Evening Tens Table

After 7 of the 9 events here is the latest league table. A reminder that a rider’s best 7 rides count, with points being awarded at 10 points for last place in an event, and one point more for each place upwards from last place. There will be prizes, which whilst non-monetary and not valuable we neverthless think you’ll like – at end of the series for categories – top male TT, top female TT, top male road bike, top female road bike plus same for v40, v50, v60 and v70, plus a jnr/juv/esp. prize. One prize per rider only.

East Devon Evening Tens no. 7

Many thanks go to Adrian, Mark, Matt, Lee and the rest of the good people of Sid Valley CC for giving up their time on this glorious summer’s evening to run the ‘ten’. 16 riders signed on, the conditions were reasonable, with the wind being a crosswind.

Fastest on the night was Luke Osborne (Banbridge CC), settled in now on his new TT machine, who rode the second fastest ride of the series, in a time of 21minutes and 11 seconds. Luke is off to compete in the CTT National 50 Mile TT Championship on Sunday, on a course near Poole in Dorset. ‘Spindata’ currently predicts him a 24th place of the 130+ competitors with a time of 1:50:5. Good luck Luke, hope all goes well and that you are ‘on one’.

Young local roadman Felix Whetter (Mid-Devon CC) took runner-up spot on 22:59 with Exeter Wheeler’s Gideon Aroussi in third just over a minute back at 24.04.

Good to see EWCC rider Dave Wilkinson back out there, after a long period of struggling with long Covid. Get properly better soon Dave, the SW cyclo-cross season awaits….

Of the 16 who took part, 6 were over the age of 60 . . . . where be the young’uns to?

A reminder that the event on 17th July is Women and Juniors only. Spread the word.

I will get the updated league table up here tomorrow.
