Tuff conditions on H25/2 (A404 / A4) on Sunday morning
Four of our rides rode the High Wycombe 25tt this morning on the H25/2 starting at the top of the A404, then along the A4 to the Sonning roundabout and back to Marlow for the finish just prior to the slip road back into Marlow.
Simon had an early start and completed in 58:14 and felt he had the best of the conditions as the wind gradually increased through the morning. His time was quick enough to place him 3rd on the Vet Standard times.
Jorj was our 2nd rider to complete the course in 1:00:29 with another fairly early start.
Danuta was the 3rd to finish in 1:00:40 but quick enough to be the fastest lady on the day.
I (Andrew) was the last of the team to finish in a time of 59:39, not a pb but the fastest I've been on this course. I was the last rider starting today and caught my minute man well before the Bisham Hill roundabout which was pleasing as I had been taking it cautiously down from the start.
Everyone appeared satisfied with their performances on the day, but no club records broken for a change.
Adam Topham of High Wycombe was the fastest in 52:23. One ride had a crash on the Bisham Hill roundabout when a tyre blow. He has been taken to hospital with a suspected broken collar bone.
