Sean Dunlea (Neon Velo) was the senior winner, while Matt Holmes (Arctic/Tacx) tied up the Eastern League men’s championship with his second place at the penultimate round of the Elmy Cycles Eastern League at Trinity Park, Ipswich.
Holmes, from Gravesend, led through the early laps while Dunlea – not a League member – duelled with Stephen James (Renvale RT) 20 seconds behind. Suddenly Dunlea got second wind – and went after first place, flying past Holmes to eventually take the win by 25 seconds. Meanwhile a late surge from Ben Lewis (Hackney GT) brought him third spot with James fourth.
Katie Scotter of Norwich club Iceni Velo, already assured of the women’s championship, took another win in the women’s race ahead of Jo Newstead who is shop manager for Elmy Cycles who organised this round as well as sponsoring the league.
“That was fun†said John Swindells, another Iceni Velo member after he took his first Vets40-49 win from CC Ashwell’s John Polak who put in his ride of the season to take second spot.
After the mudbath at Trinity Park in November this version of the course used more hard roads and less woodland singletrack, but still included the steep climbs and descents of the Suffolk Showground 4X4 demonstration course.
Dougal Toms (Streetlife) took the Under 16s race by a comfortable margin, but – having concentrated on National Trophy racing this winter- he still needs a good result in the last round, next week, to dislodge new League Leader Michael Parry (Welwyn Whs), who was second at Trinity Park.
Dave Copland (Ipswich BC) won the 50+ Vets, Archie Foulkes (CC Ashwell) took his first Under 12 win while Max Rethman (Colchester Rovers) made sure of the Under 10 league with another victory..
