TTs are Back for 2010!!!

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.
