Pond & Loze Win Tom Cox Memorial 10

Blake Pond and Tori Loze claimed victories in the open and women's categories at the inaugural Tom Cox Memorial 10-mile time trial on 20 July 2025. Held near Tresillian in Cornwall, the event honoured the late Tom Cox, a beloved National CTT age group winner, with 74 riders braving a forecast of heavy rain that turned into a dry morning with a light breeze.

Open Category Highlights and Results

Pond notched his 14th open win of the season, edging out Jon Tune (City Cycle Couriers) by a mere second with 20:19 against Tune's 20:20. Sam Wordley (Nopinz) took third in 20:34. The S6/10 course, an out-and-back route through Ladock valley with a slight elevation gain, saw many personal bests, beating the recent benchmark of 20:08 set by Matty Beecher.

Pond said: “I’m really happy to take the win. Tom was someone I knew well and a great supporter of Nopinz, so this one means a lot. I knew Jon Tune would be the biggest threat—he’s been building serious momentum—and I was hoping for a bigger gap, but in the end, it came down to just one second. I’m glad I waxed my chain last night!”

Veteran Loze secured her fourth consecutive women's open win with 25:43, beating Ayse Vahiboglu (Exeter Wheelers) by 29 seconds in 26:12, and Rose Willis (St Austell Wheelers) in 26:23.

Loze reflected: “I was happy to take the women’s win at the first Tom Cox Memorial Time Trial. The weather had looked rough all week, but we were lucky to get a dry window for the race. The course was fast with a few tough sections, but I felt strong and paced it well. It meant a lot to be part of an event that clearly resonated with so many in the local cycling community.”
