Hancock goes sub-25...

The weather portents in late afternoon may have deterred a few from attending the TT however the 23 riders who turned up at the start line for the 11.2 mile SNCC TT were rewarded with a pleasant evening and congratulations to the six riders who turned in PB’s on the night: Norman, Dave S, Craig, Hugh, Richard and Simon.

Richard Hancock a veteran of the SNCC TT for almost 20 years achieved a long held target of going sub-25 minutes for the first time and at the age of almost 50 this was achieved tonight. Well done and congratulations.

Riders are reminded that vigilance and care are required when making the three left hand turns on the course and to avoid crossing the respective white lines as you make the turns.

Next TT – Thursday 29th June: Sign on 7pm (at the latest) for a 7.15pm start

P.S.

Remember that the Ashman Trophy (2 x Abbotsley) takes place on 16th July (this trophy dates back to 1938) and to be eligible you need to have taken part in at least 2 TTs this season. Points on the day towards the Handicap Trophy as well.

TT Results

As mentioned Richard was fastest on the night followed by Nic who was only three seconds off his PB with Darren in third place only seven seconds from his PB.

Handicap Results

Quick reminder that for the Handicap Trophy points are awarded for all number of riders on the night less Guests and First Time Members. So tonight 23 riders and 18 points on offer. A Handicap Time of 25 minutes or less means that you have either matched your PB or improved on it.

A handicap time > 25 minutes shows how much you missed your PB by. To be in contention for points you need to ride close to your PB or improve on it.

Congratulations to Norman for taking the maximum points on the evening by taking over a minute from his PB followed by Dave and Craig in second and third place.

Handicap Trophy

To win the 2017 Handicap Trophy you need to be a regular rider at the TT’s and to be consistent in terms of riding to your PB or better. Simon, Nic and Dave have moved slightly ahead of the pack, however with the holiday season approaching there could be missed TT’s allowing the chasing pack to make up ground on the current leaders.
