Hi Steve, I will be around to help for as many as I can, but I’m out tonight, so unable to help.
Also May ride the odd one.

A nice warm, sunny evening with a substantial outward headwind.
Two roadbikers made it to the start but at least both can claim a podium position.
Ben Phillips turned in 25:03
whilst
Shawn Murtough was runner up with 26:35.

Thanks to Paul R for his input and company.

Good start to the season; unfortunately I am still hors de combat, but am still hopeful of joining in by the end of the season.

Thanks  Steve and Paul for supporting and glad we were there, to support the event.
Whilst not wishing to question the excellent timekeeping, Strava had me at 26:40 
As they say if it’s not on Strava…

Stewards enquiry required! Steve has the original sheets.

Shawn, thanks for peer reviewing my results, just what I'd expect from a scientist!
Your time is now 26:35.
Apologies for the delay in replying and ammending in addition to being unable to read my own writing.

Thankyou Steve.
And again appreciate you putting on the event
