10th July 2009
A blustery night down the valley for the riders this time, with a stiff breeze on the outward leg although a tailwind is always welcome on the hillier return.
First rider back on the night was Andy Cox who took the timekeepers by surprise with his 25.39 and a few minutes later, Dewi Hughes rumbled past the line with a flat back tyre, yet still posted 24.15 which conveyed his current form. Another fast ride on the night was Paul Robinson, a rider that made regular forays into the 23′s and even 22′s in years gone by is taking things a little easier this year, yet his 24.36 showed that he is still in the mix.
The PB’s were not as forthcoming as the previous week, due to the weather, although Dewi Rattray did manage his with 28.58 for 19th on the night. Elinor Thorogood made a welcome appearance at an Ystwyth event with her younger brother Ollie and her time of 27.01 put her a fantastic 11th out of 29 with Ollie, only 13 years old in his first ever TT recorded 39.10 (watch this space!).
Their father Danny again rode to a 22 minute time, this time 22.41 and he’ll be looking to better this, as will all the competitors at next weeks, supposedly faster Llety Gwyn 10 mile course.
