Keightley

Mud,Sweat ‘n Gears won the Inter-club hill climb series ending CC Weymouth’s three year run. The Dorchester-based shop outfit played Weymouth at their own game, packing out the field to take maximum points in the 4 race competition.

Lewis Keightley (Primera-sport.com) won the final round on Whiteway hill in the Purbecks but it was Ryan Weston (Poole Wheelers) who took the individual honours after finishing sixth.

A chill easterly wind ensured times were well down on last year and reminded those watching that the days of riding in shorts were over for another year. The 2.4 mile climb scythes its way up the northern aspect of Whiteway in the army ranges above East Lulworth. Gently rolling at first it is not until two thirds of the way up you enter the hurt locker, you don’t come out till the chequered board! Keightley clocked 7.12.6 a good 40 secs down on his winning time of last year but still 15 seconds ahead of Simon McLaughlin (Bournemouth Jubilee Wheelers), with Ricky Benson (Fit to Ride) in third place.

McLaughlin has won the individual title for the past three seasons but a mechanical DNF in round 3 at Creech took him out of contention. Paddy Dunn (CC Weymouth) surprisingly took three seconds out of Weston to finish in fourth place. For reasons known only to himself, John O’Brien (Bournemouth Jubilee) tackled the hill on a trike, his time of 10.52.2 very possibly a course best. The inter-club series has proved to be a popular end to the season, this year attracting 225 rides over the four events.
