RTTC Hill Climb Championships 2017

Two of the favourites indeed lived up to their tag and won the Mens (Dan Evans) and Womens (Joscelin Lowden) Hill Climb Championships at Hedley on the Hill on Sunday. On a cold but fairly calm day with the sun bursting through from time to time, there was a good sized crowd providing a brilliant atmosphere for the event organised by Ben Lane and GS Metro.

Dan Evans was well pleased with the second championship win

Joscelin Lowden won her first Hill Climb Championship in some style

The North East supporters were certainly in great form with costumes and it would not be a hill climb without a shameless bloke in a mankini!

We were there though for the Hill Climb Championships and 240 riders were entered to race up the hill to Hedley on the Hill on a closed road. Opposite where we were taking pics were result updates from time time with the long long time leader Cameron Biddle sitting close to by waiting for some one to beat his time of 4.13.

He had a long time to wait and in the meantime, the Women’s title was settled with ‘Southerner’ in the green and gold of Lewes Wanderers (Joscelin Lowden) doing her coach Sean Yates at Trainsharp proud by winning the womens title in what was a close battle. Joscelin crossed the line in 4.53, a second faster than Mary Wilkinson and two seconds quicker than Hayley Simmonds.

Adam Kenway of Raleigh GAC second in the mens race

A surprise name in the womens, second placed Mary Wilkinson

In the men’s, the course was said to favour former champion Dan Evans and so it did, with the Assos man going under 4 minutes to set a new course record and beat defending champion Adam Kenway (Raleigh)  who afterwards admitted he was disappointed not to win but also happy to have done so well in defending his title and finishing second in a strong field of riders.

In the coming week, we’ll have the interviews from the day …

After a long year, Hayley Simmonds was still able to push the pedals round quickly to finish third in the Womens championships

A pleased Kieran Savage was third for his team which also won the team award
