John Paterson was already the 10 mile 2010 champion following last weeks results (so congratulations to John) and was fastest on the night with a 23:14. Dave Barnes was 2nd at 24:52 and Terry Kowalski 3rd at 25:03.

Despite the heavy rain and mud all over the road at Loch Ken for our 25 mile time trial, John Paterson managed a PB and his first local time below the hour. It wasn’t enough to beat John Moir but it did get him the full ten points and as a result he can still beat John Moir in the handicap league. However, if my calculations are correct JP needs the full ten points!
(Remember only 4 races count – best 4 from 7)
The results were: John Moir 1st 58:53, John Paterson PB 2nd 59:31, Alan Creighton 3rd 66:58, Davy Doherty 68:23, Colin Little 69:08, Alex Ure 69:28 and Donald McCalley 72:15.
The last in the 18-25 mile races is Beattock on the 11th August. Hopefully this will be after the holiday period and the turnout will be better. Maybe the Sun will be back by then!

Our last visit to Park Farm on a windy but sunny night saw John Moir extend his lead at the top. He can now only be caught by John Paterson, however JP needs to score max points on the next two 25 mile TT races and hope JM doesn’t get a runners up place. (Remember only 4 races count – best 4 from 7)
A excellent night was also recorded by “the Heckler” Colin Little who recorded a PB
How did he do that?
John Moir’s 1st place was achieved in 42:56, 2nd was John Paterson with a time of 46:25 and 3rd was Wullie McCubbin at 48:41.
Other results are as follows:

First off all correction on the following event:
7th July Reads “ Collin 18TT Club 18-25 Handicap Round 5”
Should Read “Park Farm 18TT Club 18-25 Handicap Round 5”
We were at Beattock for the second time this season. Twelve riders finished and there were 2 PB’s but it was Neil Henderson who stole the show. The look on his face was a picture when he realised his keys were locked in the car! Thanks for the memories Neil, Fiona and I have just recently stopped laughing. Back to business –
A return from a 2 week absence and a PB were more than enough for John Moir to claim another 1st place, with a very impressive time of 57:51! 2nd was John Paterson with a time of 60:48. 3rd was Paul Crosbie with another PB and a time of 64:49.
Other results are as follows:
Donald McCalley 72:16, Dave Thompson 71:06, Alex Ure 68:50, Graham Kerr 76:11, (Not sure if the six and seven are the wrong way round Graham?), Neil Henderson 68:49, (You got the last laugh Neil beating me by one second. The next 2-up we do, I’m hiding your keys), Colin Little 69:30, Wullie McCubbin 66:16, Alan Creighton 66:26 and Mike Thompson 64:50.
That result means John extend his lead at the top, but with it being the best 4 from 7 he could still be easily caught.

On the best night of the season so far, surprisingly only 18 riders turned up for the 6th in the series of our10 ten mile handicap time trials. 17 of our riders managed to finish.
With John Moir absent, the fastest on the night was John Paterson with a 23:06 PB. It’s a shame JM wasn’t there as JP’s time equalled that of JM for this season. It also gave JP yet another ten points and a huge lead in the handicap league. 2nd was Rob Carey with a PB of 24:36. Neil Pearson was third at 24:45.
Other results were:
Reuben Hutton 30:01, Ron Love 28:39, Dave Thompson PB 26:42, Adrian Garrett 27:53, Ashley Kerr 31.01, Alex Ure PB 25:54, Alastair Johnson 27:14, Graham Kerr 27:39, Colin Little 27:12, Dave Moss PB 28:24, Neil Henderson 26:42, Rob McCallay PB 25:44, Alan Creighton 25:46, and Mike Thompson 24:53.
PB denote personnel best at this distance
There was a total of 6 PB’s not bad when you consider recent events:
Dave Thompson - He had done the Northern Rock recently but found the miles to be a bit too easy and decided to do some extra miles. He thought he was going really well because no one could catch him, turns out he was the only rider in the event going in that direction.
Alex Ure – He was attacked by 2 Jack Russells in Beattock. He was at the bottom of the crooked road searching for possible hill climbs, when he was surrounded by these huge beasts. Despite a valiant effort to fight them off (waiting for the traffic light to turn green) one of the blighters managed to bite into his leg (just a little).
Rob McCallay – Continuing his Jinx, hit the only pot hole in the course and slackened his handlebars as a result – otherwise his time would surely have been better?
Remember we have a new event “5TT Pie Eaters Handicap” to qualify to compete in this event each rider must complete 3 ten mile time trials in the one season. There are 4 ten mile time trials left so still plenty of time – but don’t forget!

23 riders turned out for our 5th 10 mile time trial of the season. It was a good night at Collin but the road was in a poor state.
John Moir, still struggling to better his best time was first at 23:09. John Paterson, closing the gap, was second at 23:20 and Mike Thompson 3rd at 24:32.

John Moir was seemingly followed by a car – either someone was checking his speed or trying to get some tips. (wonder who that was). Even the very slight uphill start couldn’t stop 3 PB’s and a near back to form time for the race secretary (Niblock where’s my pound?)

We were back at Park Farm for the 3rd race of the Club 18-25 competition. It was the second 18 mile time trial of the season.

A windy night had only 12 of us turn out for our first 25 mile time trial of our 2010season. John Moir continues to show us how it’s done. He came in 1st with a time of 60:11 but was way done on his best time of 58 minutes. 2nd was DCC new comer, Brian Young with a time of 63:35 and 3rd for the second week running was Mike Thompson, producing another PB with a time of 64:46.

I finally managed to solve the 18 mile formula. The league table for the Club 18-25 is now available. Many thanks on behalf of Graeme and I. To all those who didn’t turn up or had to pack in. We now have a place in a DCC league.

PB denote personnel best at this distance.Next week it’s a change of venue and a change in competition. It’s off to Park Farm for the first of our new Club 18-25 Handicap competition. Hopefully the turnout will be better than previous Park Farm’s. It’s not that difficult just a few little hills!

A return to Lockerbie was the venue for our second in the series of 10 mile time trials.
It was a full house at one stage (25 riders) but in the end Gogs changed his mind, gave his bike to Dave and had a fag. That resulted in 24 riders and a fine suntan for Gogs.
That came down to 23 riders who finished due to Allan Thomson, on his debut puncturing with just a few miles to go.
With John Moir on holiday it was an opportunity for someone else to finish first and with a time of 23:31, John Patterson claimed that first spot. 2nd was Chris Prichard with a PB and a time of 24:08. Brian Young on his first DCC TT was 3rd with a time of 24:19.
Other results were:
Loughlin Young 31:19, John Andrew 29:21, Dave Thompson 27:44, Adrian Garrett 28:07, Paul Crosbie 27:06, Alastair Johnston 27:07, Donald McCalley 27:50, Neil Pearson 25:48, Dave Barnes 25:22, Graham Kerr 27:26, Jim McConnachie 26:08, Alan Crieghton 25:26, Neil Henderson 27:10, Guy Graham 25:15 PB, Rob McCallay 27:03 PB, Wullie McCubbin 26:14, Rob Carey 25:11, Terry Kowalski 25:27, Mike Thompson 24:35 and Colin Little 28:02.
PS. Congratulations to the 3 riders that recorded PBs (PB denote personnel best at this distance) but how can riders be faster last week than in the glorious sunshine this week – not my place to name and shame – so check your-self! (I’ve highlighted in blue to help)
After 2 events the League looks like this but that may change when some of the new comers time start counting at the next race.

Dumfries Cycling Club 31st March
After that long horrid winter, the worst I’ve experienced in Dumfries (but I missed the now legendary “big snow”) the 2010 season finally kicked off at Lockerbie on the 31st March. With snow on the hills just a few miles away and after the recent weather it was doubtful if it would be on at all.
But with our timekeeper, Fiona kitted up with her new “all weather clothing” she was desperate to try them out. I knew I wasn’t ready for the cold weather, hence my bad time and the parachute I was wearing didn’t help either but I dragged myself there on her behalf!
16 members of our club attended the first time trail of the season. This was the first in a series of 10 mile time trials.
John Moir , who obviously trains in all weather was first with a time of 23:06, John Patterson, warmed up after a few races under his belt was second at 23:30 with Rob Carey third 25:23.
Other results were:
Adrian Garrett 29:33, Dave Thompson 28:36, Graham Kerr 27:28, Alastair Johnston 28:06, Alex Ure 29:41, Guy Graham 25:50, Rob McCallay 28:03, Wullie McCubbin 27:04, Ron Love 29:28, Alan Crieghton 25:33, Neil Pearson 26:11, Colin Little 27:28 and Neil Henderson 27:16.
