a3crg Greatham Time Trials 2016

After last week's "sell out" on the Griggs Green course (P881r) the ...a3crg Wednesday event was back on the Ham Barn course (P881) which attracted just seventy two riders, but it meant no rider was turned away. However the "apparently slower" course still posted three 19's and thirty five riders posted series (done on either course) PB's.

Kevin Tye was fastest but by just seconds from Andy Langdown having his best ever ride on the A3 with his 19:36 while Jon Hughes went sun 20 for the first time. Fastest of the women was Sarah Matthews with 22:25, while Laura Bartlett was getting a bit of 2-up training with Steve Williamson ahead of next week's mixed 2-up and posting a 20:45.

The penultimate event of the Great Series was the Greatham Handicap; riders who had ridden at least three events were set a target time of the average of their slowest and fastest time. Brian Hall took the first place prize with a plus of 02:51 followed by Martin Whitty, Simon Craig and Steve Legg and Mike Garner both tying for 4th place.

The debate of which is the faster course will go on, will be decide on the 10th August when the Buriton course (P883) is used for the first time in a number of years?
