Wilkinson shows clean set of heels

Tim Wilkinson jumped clear in the shadow of the finish line to claim victory in Tinwald Cycling Club’s, Hinds Seed Cleaning, 50km handicap event at Hinds on Sunday.

His move was timed to perfection with the chasing peloton riding onto his group on the finish line.

Although not eligible for any of the major spoils, junior Oliver Davidson produced a solid ride to lead the chasing group in.

Kev Opele hung on bravely to secure second place with the evergreen Neil Wylie digging deep to claim the final podium position.

Michelle Davidson produced her best ride of the season to take fourth spot.

Rob Hooper and Glen Marshall rounded out the top six. 

Scratch marker Brad Hudson secured fastest time honours riding the distance in 72.07.  Co-markers Wayne Clement and Tony Ward claimed second and third time respectively.

The juniors and division 2 contested a 20km handicap event.

Lily Davidson had the final say in the junior event finding the front on the run home and holding out the chasers to take the win.

Jake Marshall produced a top effort to take the second place spoils.

Chloe Kiesanowski dug deep to deservedly hold on for third place.

Paige Kiesanowski and Ethan Stainger filled the next two spots.

Back marker Ashton Stainger rode the course in 34.08 to record the fastest time.

Debbie Skinner kept the chasing group at bay to take division 2 honours.

Husband Andy Skinner took second place with Brian Ellis in third place.

Next week the Club will contest a 48km handicap event on the Grahams Road block.
