Thank you to all the riders who entered the rearranged Leg Loosener TT after the March event was postponed due to snow. It was a very windy morning, with a nasty headwind on the exposed section on Roger Penny Way.

A massive thank you also to all the marshals, timekeepers, HQ helpers and everyone who baked a cake!


The men’s road bike event resulted in a tie between Dave Dent (GS Stella) and Ben Skinner (Rule 5) with Ed Slot (Sotonia) finishing 12 seconds behind the pair in third please.

The women’s road bike event was won by Ed’s sister Chrissie Slot (IRIS Race Team) on what was her first ever time trial. In second place was Kym Harvey (Fat Creations).

The men’s TT bike event was won by our own Ant Gritton (Sotonia) with Paul Lockyer (New Forest CC) 14 seconds behind and Julian Lockwood (Primera-Teamjobs) in third place.

The women’s TT bike event was the only of the four events not to have any non-starters so a special mention should go to Faye, Hayley, Kirsty, Michelle W, Claire, Michelle L and Debie for not braving the windy conditions and giving us a great race!

First place went to Faye Faber (Bike Jockey CC) with an impressive ride to finish the hilly 14.5 mile course in just under 40 minutes, beating two-time national champion and professional cyclist Hayley Simmonds (Team WNT Pro Cycling) who finished in second place after undergoing surgery for a broken elbow in mid June. Third place went to Kirsty Mcseveney (Fareham Wheelers CC).
