On a windy night where the rain always threatened, John Moir managed to clinch the 18-25 mile handicap time trial.
John Moir’s time of 58:27 was more than enough for 1st place on the night. 2nd was Chris Prichard’s PB of 60:56. John Patterson 61:01 gave him the 3rd place.
Other results were:
Neil Henderson 69:30, Alex Ure 68:25, Colin McCann 68:24, Dave Thompson 75:52, David Prichard 69:13, Alan Creighton 67:49 and Colin Little 70:21.

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:
Donald McCalley 52:51, Dave Thompson 55:23, Alex Ure 51:45, Neil Henderson 50:46, Colin Little 51:07 PB, Alan Creighton 49:33 and Matt Wallace 49:07.

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!
