There was good representation from Leek based riders at Buxton CC’s Good Friday Hilly TT in Longnor.
We were not treated to stunning conditions like 2023. Instead flooding and hail storms added further challenge to an already tough course.
Mark Lovatt (Congleton CC) put the rest of us all in our places, winning the Vet category and bagging himself a free holiday.
Graham displayed some spectacular acrobatics, snapping his chain on the start line. He recovered well, getting it fixed and setting a time from a later start slot.
Some gravel racing in the diary next and then National Road Bike TT Champs at the end of the month.
22mi hilly TT, road bikes, 2500ft climbing.
