Bridge of Earn - Dunning - Forteviot TT

Post date: 08-May-2014 12:17:35

Wednesday the 7th was a ride of 2 contrasting halves, with the riders struggling into a strong westerly breeze on the way out then getting blown home at high speed on the return. The course was a slight deviation from the usual route, missing the 2nd half of the Invermay Road (due to it's dangerously bad surface), and instead returning back through Forteviot. Steve Cairns maintained his 100% record this year taking the win ahead of the rapidly improving Richard Dowling in 2nd and Dave Nicoll 3rd. Brian Teven was the fastest man on a road bike, with John Smith and Colin McCreath in a dead heat for 2nd spot in the BAR competition.

A big thank you to Peter Will and John Cowen for timekeeping and to Bruce Mackie for marshalling out on the course.

Overall, Steve Cairns leads the Mens Championship, Dave Nicol leads the Handicap, Anne Chisholm leads the Ladies Championship and John Smith is leading the BAR. The full spreadsheet of results and standings can be downloaded here.
