A car boot sale, horse show and the Beaulieu Auto-Jumble did not deter 17 riders from taking part in the 10 mile time trial on the Calshot course (P101). It was a cool morning with a northerly breeze – not ideal for this course with its long south-to-north up-hill leg between Calshot and the Gangwarily roundabout. Nevertheless, Jahan Hunter, in one of his few rides this year, beat James Peckham into second place by 15 seconds; Jonathon Hall coming third, 22 seconds behind James.
