Emma Serjeant claimed the prize for the fastest female and Thomas Bill was fastest male at the Mid Shropshire Wheelers 25-mile time trial on Sunday morning.

Riding for Hafren CC, Serjeant set a time of 1-05-48 to finish ahead of Oswestry Paragon CC’s Helen Tudor who clocked 1-13-53, in what is the third of 17 planned Shropshire Cycling Clubs Association (SCCA) events for this season.

In the men’s event Bill (Stafford Triathlon Club) completed the course in 56-32, just two seconds quicker than Bridgnorth Cycling Club’s Tim Beardmore who claimed the veteran on standard title with +11-22, while Beardmore’s clubmate Jonathan Mills-Keeling was third overall in 58-13.

The D25/20 course begins in Prees before heading south past Prees Green and Weston-Under-Redcastle to Upper Battlefield and turning to head north and retrace the course all the way back past the start to finish at Prees Heath.

Having finished second at the Wrekinsport CC 18-mile time trial on March 5 and then claimed fifth overall at the Frodsham Wheelers 22-mile time trial on March 19, Bill claimed victory in just his second recorded attempt at the 25-mile distance – his previous time trial of this length being a 22nd-placed finish at Nova Raiders CC in May 2021.
