"A fine dry day, with very little wind, but a tough course" was the comment from our roving reporter. Reg Smith won the event with 22:27 and he also won the Vets. Andrew MacPherson was the fastest Thanet rider with a time of 25:40.

Other Thanet first and second claim times were:
Colin Inett 27:10
Andy Burrows 26:32
Alison Macartney 30:38
Shay Giles 24:40
Chris Bax 24:51

Alison registered a 2min 7 sec improvement giving her 2nd place in the 'line 1' category and also 2nd lady. The word is that Andy Burrows also recorded a PB inasmuch that he not only went to the correct HQ but he was first to arrive... well done Andy!
