Action Jackson powers to Combine 50 win

Andy Jackson (SSLL Racing Team) took the win in the Norlond TT Combine 50-mile event staged on the F1B/50 near Tempsford in Bedfordshire on Sunday morning.

The 40-year-old clocked 1:41.05 to take victory by 2-44 from last year’s event winner Matthew Smith (Team Bottrill), while Smith’s team-mate James Perkins completed the podium in third, another 39 seconds off Jackson’s pace and a repeat of his third place in the 2015 event.

Riders were greeted by a warm and dry morning, with a rising tailwind on the homeward section of the two-lap course which would’ve offered a slight help to the later starters.

The course takes riders south on the A1 to the Baldock junction, before heading west along the A507 Stotfold  bypass and back up north to the Tempsford junction to complete one lap.

Jessica Rhodes-Jones (Beacon Roads CC) was the fastest woman with 2:03.16 which was just 24 seconds quicker than next best female, Jody Conibear (Hemel Hempstead CC).

And as well as being fastest overall, Jackson was the best veteran on standard with a plus of 34.30, beating Dave Dent (Offshore RT) by 4-46.

Second for the last two years, Brett Harwood (Terry Wright Cycles) was a non-finisher this time.
