Eamonn Deane writes … The junior from Andover has been in good form and looked smooth and controlled on the climb. The 2 mile test started flat but grippy surfaces and a headwind made it hard from the start.

Local man Steve Dring had clocked 5:55 training on the course in the week so a sub 5 minute ride was the target. Charles Coleman (dream cycling), winner of the Dorset 12 day last year took second place at 1 second with Ben Davis 3rd.

What was said; “I did not expect it, warming up I felt rubbish, I found it all hard, I just smashed it all the way. I am not going to get too excited but I think I can do well overall, stage 2 is quite hilly so will suit me”
