TT Results for 5th August

Yet another windy night on the time trial course. This week the event also featured the Handicap for regular YCC riders. Each riderâs average time is calculated based on their rides this season on the 10 mile course. The rider with the fastest average, say 20 minutes, has no education on their time on the night. A slower rider, say an average of 23 minutes is given an allowance of 3 minutes (23-20=3), this is deducted from their time on the night. So if each rider matches their average everyone would have the same time. The rider that comes closest, or improves on their average should get the quickest adjusted time.

Well the outcome of all of that was that Dave Driver was the quickest with an adjusted time of 27:33, closely followed my Mark Fisher on 27:42.

Dave Driver also topped the age adjusted times, in fact the entire field was aged over 40 so everyone had an age adjusted time this week.

Talita Ancona, Total Tri Training, was the fastest woman, 28:04 (25:06 on the age adjusted times).

It is the final 10 of the season next week, fingers crossed that the wind might finally drop. Still a 6:45 start, HQ Davis Hall, West Camel.
