Andover Wheelers Cycling Club recently hosted the penultimate round of the RTTC National Classic Series.

The event, which took place on Sunday, May 31, formed part of a six-event series which travels to various hilly courses across the UK, from Devon to Scotland.

The 24-mile time trial course was braved by cyclists amidst a west wind and cool, overcast conditions.

Several records were shattered during this leg of the series, with the full results available to view at resultsheet.app/rsd/1779107288929x954334559392497700.

The women's race was a closely contested affair, with Ellen Reynolds of Elevate RT edging out a victory in 1:04:01, narrowly beating Bexy Dew of Army Cycling, who finished in 1:04:31.

Both women beat the previous ladies' TT and RB course records.

The club expressed gratitude to all volunteers who contributed to the event's success.
