On a nice sunny day 20 riders started the Southend Wheelers “Over The Hill” race, which had the riders climbing the Hoggenberg three times during the one hour + 3 Laps race. This split the race up into several small groups with the leading two riders Geof Wiles (Abellio/San Fairy Ann CC) and Bob Downs (Rapha /Condor) sprinting out the finish, with Geoff Wiles (Abellio/San Fairy Ann CC) getting the better of Bob Downs (Rapha /Condor).
