Steve Pink writes....“Records are there to be broken” so the saying goes, and CC Weymouth’s own Paddy Dunn proved just that as he put in a stunning ride to take a huge 1:28 off of, World age group Duathalon champion, Ian Cardy’s previous best mark from 2010. Paddy has been having a stellar season and is continuing to find more speed every week. Having taken time out to start a family a couple of seasons ago Paddy rode sparingly last year. However after putting in the hard miles over the winter and coupled with a new TT bike, this season Paddy is starting to show again what he’s really all about!
The condition last night were almost perfect and quick times were seen all round with several PBs being posted. A great ride from Greg Parker, a MTB and road racing convert, who put in a cracking time despite still suffering from a mammoth ride on Sunday. New member Matthew Pye is also starting to see the fruits of his training efforts as his times start to tumble and the ever smiling David Butt going under the 50 minute mark for the first time.
Two riders who were not quite so lucky were Charlie Lawson and Myself. At least Charlie made it three quarters of the way round before he punctured, I never even got to the start line. The frustration of missing out on such a quick night was clear to see on both our faces, however I found my way to the finish line to keep our faithful time keeper, Justin, company and roar on the guys through the last few yards!,
