The weather Gods were looking down on us this Tuesday as almost perfect conditions were offered up for the potential slaughter of personal and course bests. The 15 riders who signed on accepted the challenge with relish and very few were left disappointed with at least 10 riders breaking either their personal, course or season's best.

Adam Topham once again returned to attack the long standing course record of 20:17. Despite shaving another few seconds off of his own course best there remains a couple more he needs to find to achieve his goal. However his presence has added an extra dimension to our club 10's. Bryce Riglar put in a descent warm up for this Sunday's venture to the 'quick' Poole Wheelers open with his fastest club 10 of the year in 23:04 and David Butt took a sizable 27 seconds from his own PB with 23:13 for 3rd.

Also a worthy mention should go to Matt Merritt and Ian Roe who have been having a healthy battle over the last few weeks and both PB'd, Ian into the 24's for the first time and Matt getting his just rewards for some stellar training this year with a fantastic 24:22.

And finally a mention for Richard Gould, who (I believe) broke the 30 minute barrier for the first time.
