Moreton Series, Wins for Rowland & White!


Martin Rowland (Primera-Teamjobs) won a scrappy sprint to take round 3 in the Moreton series with Lora White (North Dorset Tri) winning the Women's race.
The pollen hung thick in the rural Dorset air as the red-numbered scratch group quickly caught the groups in front in the 30 mile TLI handicap. Taking a tow from Phil Cole (Mud Sweat Gears), Rowland got the perfect lead-out but to his left Matthew Norris's rear hub failed, Norris did well to hold his line but the noise caused others to hesitate. Nine contested the shorter women's race with White winning a tight sprint from Emily Hingson (Purbeck Peloton). Numbers remain down on previous years with just 40 signing on, compared to 65 a few years back.
