Anthony Jones (VMCC Powered by Y Beic) and Roxy Woodfield (Ludlow Brewery Race Team) charged to clear victories at the Welsh 100-mile Time Trial Championships.

Jones, aged 49, took his first open time trial victory of the season stopping the clock in a time of three hours, 31 minutes and four seconds.

Last month Jones finished second in the West Wales Cyclists’ League 100 in 3-47-52 but he went much faster and a place better on this occasion.

The R100/9 saw riders start outside Raglan before heading out westerly on the A40 towards Abergavenny before turning back east over to Monmouth.

Riders completed three complete out and back loops before a final leg towards Abergavenny for the finish.

Jones also won the Welsh CA 12-hour Championship last season and added another medal to his collection finishing over three-and-a-half minutes clear of his nearest rival.

Mike Skidmore (Cheltenham & County Cycling Club) was taking part in his first open 100-mile event and finished a respectable second place in 3-36-39.

After winning the AeroCoach 15 last month Simon Adcook (Team Echelon) completed the podium positions finishing third in 3-42-56.

Spindata had predicted a win for Jones out of the finishers, but he was almost five minutes faster than his forecast time of 3-35-57.

Last woman starter Woodfield was a clear winner in the women’s event with her time of 4-22-10 over six-and-a-half minutes clear of her nearest challenger.

Quickest veteran Amanda Lane (North Dock Dredgers Tri) finished second overall in 4-28-45 while Joy Payne (High Wycombe CC) was third (4-32-30).
