Series leader Matt Bottrill notched up his second victory in the Rudy Project National Time Trial Series, the I Ride RT man covering the 33.1-mile course in Worcestershire more than three minutes quicker than his nearest rival.
Bottrill, from Leicester, now has the required five rides and has dropped just three points, having finished second on three occasions. But with his nearest rival being 18 points adrift, it would take a big reversal of fortunes to deny him the overall victory.
The lower two steps of the podium were filled with Chippenham and District Wheelers' shirts, but it was Ben Anstie who took second, beating team-mate Jeff Jones - who is second overall - by 1-05.
The real drama was in the one-lap women's race, where Olympic track ace Wendy Houvenaghel (Bike Chain Ricci) took an expected victory.
The two Cult Racing riders fell victim to wet and warm conditions, with a misted visor contributing to Kilmartin's crash, while King suffered a sore hip and grazed arm after slippery roads caused her fall.
Another big winner in the women's race was their Cult Racing colleague Nadine Mayhew, who moved from fifth to second in the overall after finishing fifth.
