What a beautiful day! Autumn really is the best season - when it's warm and sunny! A great turnout of over 100 senior riders saw the Checkendon course in perfect condition with clear blue skies overhead and dry grippy conditions undertyre. Lots of smiles too - even from the dnfs who fixed their bikes and went out again!

Isaac and Chris shared the lead throughout the race only for Isaac to pull away in the final 100 metres and score the only sub 12 minute lap time of the day.
