Last Sunday saw a busy day for the Birdwell Wheelers. Trevor Mayne rose early for a 7am start in the North Lancashire TTA 50 mile Open Time Trial on a course between Cockermouth and Keswick. A cold and wet morning saw a number of non-starters but Mayne finished in 2h 2m 20s placing him 21st overall and 2nd in the 60-64 age group. His time was a new club age record at 61 years old.
The afternoon saw 17 riders compete in the club’s Open Hill Climb to Green Moor. The weather had eased and the day saw some fast times. Winner overall and recipient of the Upperthorpe Rose Bowl was Kieran Wynne-Cattenach of Team Lifting Gear in a new course record of 2m 12.9s. Fastest female was 15 year old Maia Howell of Matlock CC in 3m 38.4s. Fastest Wheeler was that man Mayne again in 3m 51.4s
