The promoting club’s Fin Robertson took overall victory in the Derwentside CC 9.9-mile time trial on Sunday, while Sarah Wilkinson (Blaydon CC) was quickest of the female competitors around the picturesque Derwent Reservoir.

Dry and sunny conditions were tempered by a changeable breeze and some awkward driving by some motorists which might well have prevented record-breaking times.

Nevertheless, 22-year-old Robertson’s time of 21-46 was impressive, and gave him the win by 1-15 from Julian Macbride (Team Kirkley Cycles) with Terry Wilkinson (Barnesbury CC) third with 23-12.

Wilkinson topped the podium in the women’s race with 26:38 while in second position (and also fastest junior female and fastest female road bike) was Elizabeth McKinnon of Derwentside CC in 27:32. Elizabeth also broke the junior female course record by 38 seconds.

Sarah, 51, said afterwards: “I knew I was riding well at the half-way point. The weather was kind but once again my chain came off so I had to stop to put it back on.

“A lot of people were held up by traffic, but thankfully my run was unimpeded. I’m really happy to take the win today and a course PB.”

Wearside Tri club member Nick Stevenson was fastest veteran with 23-46 for seventh overall, while over-50s fastest was Colin Atkinson of Muckle CC in 24-23 which gave him a top ten place overall.

Russ Richardson (Teesdale CRS) was best over-60 in 24-30, with Ray Bell (over-70) and Ronnie Thompson (over-80s) flying the flag for the club with solid performances.

Derwentside were also celebrating victory in the junior category with Daniel Holmes being fastest junior boy in 23-41 for fifth overall, while the best on a road bike was Brian Ward (Protech Velo) in 24-17.
