Dumfries Cycling Club 14th July

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!

Dumfries Cycling Club 7th July

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.
