CHRIS DYKE BREAKS PETER GRAHAM’S 1958 RECORD
A mild and still day saw some outstanding times this year, although conditions can be better as there is often a helpful tailwind. Chris Dyke (Manchester Bicycle Club) and Rebecca Goodson (Sheffrec CC) both set huge course records.
Chris’s 6:27.1 was not only faster than all the winning times since we resurrected the event five years ago, but also smashed possibly the oldest hill climb course record in the country, beating Peter Graham’s 1958 time of 6.34.6, set whilst beating Tom Simpson by 1 second in the 1958 BLRC Hill Climb Championships.
Some achievement! We haven’t been able to find out any times set by women prior to us running the event, but Rebecca’s 8:01.2 is stunning, quicker by 24 seconds than Lizzie Stedman’s previous record, which itself was a superb time. Lizzie also improved her time this year. Eugene Cross (SSLL Racing Team) also put in an exceptional ride, setting a new junior’s record of 6:57.5. Daryl Wall’s 7:02.9 vets record didn’t go, but Joe Le Sage deservedly won the vets prize for the second time with 7:33.1.
