A hard morning on a hard course saw 37 riders take part in Sotonia’s opening time trial of the season.  Westerly winds meant a head wind on the long leg from Landford to Redlynch slowed the riders considerably, however, despite this some very good times were recorded especially by one or two of the “first timers”.
