The weather for the latest evening “10” at Betteshanger was rather challenging, being cool, overcast and very breezy. This led to many of the times being slower than in previous weeks. It was quite a small field this week, presumably because of holidays. Just 13 riders took part, with 2 junior riders and 11 seniors. […]
It was a warm, dry but breezy evening for the latest 10-mile time trial at Betteshanger CP. The stiff north easterly breeze made it tough going around the rear of the circuit, and hence most times were affected to a greater or lesser degree.
