Race Notes
Strong wind blowing down the hill ensured there would be no new records as times were 3 – 4 secs down on last year.
Very large spectator contingent (100+) on the hill was the biggest ever.
Largest entry (52) for many years.
Last year’s winner Daniel Zagni beaten into 2nd place by club mate Graham Collins.
Ipswich BC win team prize with 1st, 2nd & 4th places.
Exceptional ride by Brit Tate to win Ladies 1st Prize
James Rush (5th o/a) wins Cycle Club Sudbury’s Hillclimb Championship as fastest CCS rider, narrowly beating Simon Wright by half second.
