Pete 2nd in London Champs

Pete Wager reports:

"The Nick Clark RR doubled up as the London RR Champs held at Leighton Buzzard, Beds on June 21 by Kenton RC.

79 riders lined up for 130km (8 laps) on the Cheddington circuit with sunny but breezy conditions. After a few weeks of feeling under the weather and focussing on the new TT bike I was hoping just to get round and get some good racing miles back in the legs. Attacks went from the gun with everyone chasing all the moves - until around the 6th lap a few riders were getting clear over the climbs but getting pulled back on the decents and long flat sections. Last lap and 5 riders went clear including Martin Ford, Dan Patten, Warrick Spence, Andy Betts and one other. Pace remained high in the bunch but it was never going to catch the lead group with Sigma Sport controlling every move to protect Andy Betts.

In the final KM's I secured my position on the front of the bunch ready for the head wind sprint for the line. Warrick Spence touched wheels as the lead group opened up the sprint and came down so it was 2nd place available for the next London based rider as we passed him getting back on his bike. I went for it early and managed to hold of Lewis to take the silver medal and 10th in the Nick Clark. Not a bad return to racing!"

May rider of the month is.....

Keith writes:
"May’s rider of the month award goes to Pete Wager who has been battling away all year against some top opposition. After successfully promising that he would get his 1st cat licence and then shave his legs in 2008 Pete had a tough baptism to top flight races when he rode the Perfs back in Feb….however he has raced hard and has raised his game to keep the competition on their toes. This has really shown in the Eelmoor series during May when outnumbered by Felts, AWs etc Pete was consistently placed in the top 6."

..meanwhile @ the F&C 10m TT..

Won by top tester Nick Bowdler with a sub 20 minute ride three Meudons rode the Farnborough and Camberley 10 this week. Chris Day put in another strong ride to follow up on last week's 2nd at Eelmore to record a time of 21:15 for 3rd. One minute back was Steve Richards, rapidly getting back up to speed after several weeks off the bike with a broken collarbone for 6th. And a few seconds behind Steve was timetrialling legend and seventysomething British cycling institution John Woodburn.
