NATIONAL 50 GOES TO HUTCH
National 10- and 25-mile champion Michael Hutchinson recorded a ninth consecutive 50-mile title in North Yorkshire on Saturday to claim a hat-trick of titles he last held three years ago.
Hutchinson clocked 1-40-37 for the course at Dishforth, while Wrekinsport CC?s Andy Bason was second with 1-44-26 and Ben Instone (Scientific Coaching) was third, another seven seconds off the pace.
Earlier in the day Julia Shaw secured the women?s title with a championship record time of 1-51-39 despite rainy conditions for the event.
Now riding for In Gear-Quickvit RT, Shaw returned to the top of the podium with a strong ride, beating her nearest rival by 1-04.
This year?s 10-mile champion, Shaw had to settle for second spot in the 25 as Sharon Laws took victory, but she returned to winning ways with a strong ride on Saturday, pushing Lynn Hamel (The Green Room Group) into second spot, while Beacon RCC?s Ruth Eyles was third with 1-55-06.
Hamel led The Green Room Group.com to the team prize alongside Charlotte Wadsworth and Lynsey Anderson, with a combined time of 6-01-07 which was also a championship record.
