Perry, who rides for Ellan Vannin CC, regularly competes against Kennaugh and the Isle of Man’s Tour de France sprint expert Mark Cavendish in the Manx Wednesday time trial series, and only gets beaten by seconds by them.
Perry’s class shone through like the sun on Sunday.
He won the 15-mile test, which included the tough climb from Fordingbridge to Godshill Ridge, in a rapid 32min 54sec.
That gave him a 1min 4sec margin over second placed Andrew Bryson (Peter Hansford Racing), while the bronze spot was filled by Bournemouth Jubilee Wheelers’ Dave Pickering with 34-13.
With a disappointingly small entry, most of the age-related awards went to Southern riders.
Bryson won the Masters 1 group and Antelope RT’s Richard Blake the Masters 2 for 35 to 40-year-olds with 39-09.
Blake’s teammate Oli Emmans won Group A (40-45) with 35-34, Pickering took the B top award, Antelope’s Steve Wood the C Group with 36-16 and teammate and event organiser Glenn Longland the D, demonstrating he has lost little of the speed which earned him numerous national awards over the years, with 35-23.
Bob Jolliffe (New Forest CC) was E Group champion with 45-29, Fareham Wheelers’ Bob Oliver won the F (41-22) and his clubmate Barrington Day the H category with 51-46.
Other southern results: Gary Allan (GA Cycles) 35-25, Simon Barnes (GA Cycles) 36-26, Stuart Martingale (Sotonia CC) 36-44, Stuart Peckham New Forest CC) 2nd Group A 37-41, Rob Ellis (VC St Raphael) 39-28, Richard Burch (Sotonia CC) 40-24, Nick Williams (New Forest CC) 2nd Group C 40-44, Martin Balk (New Forest CC) 47-49, Philip Morris (Wessex VTTA) 56-53.
Perry’s sister Faye Faber from the Isle of Wight won the women’s award with a time of 45-33.
