Thomas Hutchinson

Thomas Hutchinson and Joanne Rea were fastest male and female riders respectively at the Houghton CC 25-mile time trial staged in Northumberland on Sunday.

Hutchinson, the 22-year-old Tyneside Vagabonds rider from Ponteland, clocked 54-16 to take the win by almost two minutes from Julian MacBride (Blaydon CC), while exactly a minute behind Hutchinson’s pace was Neil Pendrich (SVTTA) in third.

Newcastle-based Joanne Rea (Blaydon CC) was fastest female, the 30-year-old's time of 1-05-43 giving her the win over team-mate Gemma Hutchins by 50 seconds.

The event was run in warm and sunny conditions, although once riders got on to the main course the still conditions at headquarters were replaced by a brisk headwind on the outward leg along the A696.

After taking the win, Hutchinson said: “Since finishing my university degree a few weeks ago, I’ve been increasing the volume of my training on the bike. I’ve been feeling good but have been troubled with a slight niggle in my knee, and earlier in the week, I really didn’t think I would be able to race.

“The outward leg felt pretty comfortable to be fair, so I figured I would at least be on for a PB. The weather conditions today were perfect and my knee and myself managed to hold it together to the finish line.”

Joanne Rea

Henning Saelzer had the honour of starting the field for the host club and came in on a very respectable 57:37, one of 15 riders in the field to go under the hour for the 25M course.

In other categories, the prize for fastest on a road bike went to Mark Robertson of the Army Cycling Union (7th overall in 57:52).
