A dull and not very warm (6 to 7C) day, with little breeze for the Bikelife 25 today. But there was some, really outstanding stuff, especially from winner Jon Copp, and more especially from 70yr old Derek “Dastardly Dick” Stewart who had an all-time Personal Best, first time under the hour!, with a fine 59.52 (+22.38 up on his age std).
This race was originally to be organised by Ian Brodie who sadly recently passed away whilst on a cycling holiday in Mallorca.
Note: One rider/one prize rule.
