Wham bam Van Nierop lights up the Kibworth 10!
35 riders took to the start line for Tuesday’s 11th round of the Club TT Championship on the Kibworth 10. It was a super-hot evening, and all the talk at the HQ was of the potential for a fast night.
The ‘outleg’, which was anticipated to be into a cross headwind, was surprising quick, and from the turn riders enjoyed a cross tail return.
Fastest was super speedy Hans ‘wham bam’ Van Nierop, stopping the clock at 21:3,8 followed by Gary Roberts in second at 21:45 and Jonathan Durnin in third at 22:07.
Fastest woman was Milly Pinnock (26:12), and fastest on a road bike was Rhys Thomas (23:22).
There were many PBs and course PBs, with a special mention to juvenile Jamie Kershaw with 23:30 and Debbie Ward, went under 30 minutes for the first time with 29:57.
Well done all!
Big thanks as ever to all who volunteering, without whom these events cannot happen. A WVCC welcome to Steve, who did his volunteering turn serving much needed tea and cake to fuel to post race chatter.
