Downton Two Day:Hutchings in Prime Position after First Day

PrimeraTeamjobs took control of the 20th edition of the “Glenn Longland” Downton 2 Day in Hampshire. Oscar Hutchings flew up the 2.4 mile big ring climb, clocking 03:58, the first ever sub 4 minute ride in the races history.

Then, later, Hutchings had to give second best to his teammate Ed Hatfield in the following 45km road race; the youngster impressively outsprinting Hutchings & Matt Downie (Eden Veranda RT) to repeat his win of last year. ” I came off Oscars wheel and absolutely nailed it” he explained after.

Sundays 24km time trial will decide the winner with Hutchings leading the general classification ahead of Michael Ford (VC ST Raphael/Waites Contracts) & Matt Downie (Eden Veranda RT). The sporting course across the New Forest is a roadmans course but experienced tester Michael Ford must start as favourite to win and take the overall.
