PACC TT Summer Series - Event 3 - February 10, 2013
What a turnout this morning! Over 50 entries for the third of the PACC Summer Time Trials on a perfect Sunday morning (apart from the wind which is a permanent feature of the Outer Harbour circuit). It was great to have such a large number of para cyclists registering, as well as the many junior riders who elected to stretch their legs over the longer course.
Fastest rider of the day was Marc Freemantle in 23:33 – over 30 seconds ahead of second fastest in tandem riders Keiran Modra and Paul Murray.
Aero
Kyle Franson dusted off the TT bike for a win in the men’s aero category in 24:21, ahead of the colourful Tom Freeman and Darren Searle who managed to stay upright this week. Lucy Barker had a great ride, finishing in 26:04.
35+
As mentioned, Marc Freemantle beat the field and took the win in the for the men ahead of Loz Shaw and Bryan McIntyre. A flat on the course left Matt Toser out of the race. Gemma Kernich was slightly slower than her January time, but came across the line in a 28:04, our second fastest female today.
50+
Geof Boylan-Mauland finished in the top 10 overall and proved too powerful ahead of Kevin Hannaford and Mark Gregory.
Non Aero
Shaun O’Callaghan was not only the fastest non-aero competitor, he picked up fourth fastest of the day in in 24:41. Nathan Wicker and Noriyuki Ta finished the placings in this category. Annabel Cox opted for the Non Aero option today, and despite not being 100%, was able to finish in front of fellow PACCer Lee Anne Flemming.
Juniors (U17)
With juniors not being able to race the last round due to the State Track Championships, we were pleased to see their return with 19 turn up this morning. James Higginson crossed the line after 25:44, slightly faster than Nick Anderson in 25:57 (which is exactly the same as his round 1 time). Alexander Haman rounded up the top three, shaving over a minute of his December time. Danielle McKinnirey was the fastest junior female, 50 seconds ahead of Chloe Moran. Kate Branson in third – also with a minute off her December effort.
In her first time trial, Bianca Woolford took to the trike with her dad behind her. It was great to see, and we hope that the tricky road conditions don’t put her off coming out again next month.
Tandems
Six tandem teams registered this morning but we only had five starters after a discovery on Sam and Madge’s green machine left it in need of repair. Keiran Modra and Paul Murray second overall and winners in the category over Victoria Veitch / Mike Hoile and David Parsons / Steven Kemp. Special mention to the Clipsal team for supporting our event.
Thanks to all those who came out this morning - we can't put on events without you. Commissaire – Paula Hollamby; Starter Alex ‘Treasure’ Bates, Set up and Marshalling Chris Mack and Will Lyons, Time Keepers Masako Freemantle and Yolande Jones, and of course Handler Extraordinare Deeee Noooooo 1.
For those who are interested, our course records are: Male - 21:31 set by Rohan Dennis in 2010; Female - Carly Light in 25:07 in 2011.
Full results are below. Put March 3 in your diary for Round 4.
