A COOL drizzly evening with a testing crosswind produced disappointing times for most riders in round nine of the Stuart Barkley Time Trial Series.
Fastest of the 18 riders taking part was Oswestry Paragon's Neil Coles in a time of 23.12min.

Coles' time was nearly a minute down on the previous week partly due to the weather conditions, but also due to a tough ride in Wednesday night's Shropsh
ire 30-mile Championship, where he finished in a time of one hour 14 minutes 10 seconds.

The other Paragon riders competing in the 30-mile event were Matt Griffiths (1hour 16min 34sec), Ned Millington (1hour 21min 26sec), Steve Roberts (1hour 21min 41sec) and Helen Tudor (1hour 30min 49sec)
Matt Griffiths finished second on Friday night in 23.46min.

Steve Roberts (25.32min) showed great consistency with all his rides this year being within 16 seconds of this time.

This put him in equal third place with Wrecsam Tri's Paul Williams.
Just behind was Colin Lythe in a time of 25.43min, putting him ahead of Paragon team mate Medwyn Jones (26.01min)

Andrew Birch of OO Tri who was back on his bike after running across Wales last weekend finishing seventh in 26.07min.

Oswestry's Steve Davies took eighth place in a time of 27.16min.

There was also a tie for ninth place with Wrexham RC's Ken Matthews and
OO Tri's Paul Jones riding his first time trial both stopping the clock on 27.22min.

Only two ladies took part with Oswestry's Helen Tudor (28.42min) coming in ahead of Wrecsam Tri's Kim Norman (32.50min).

Sunday morning saw two Paragon riders in action in the Rhyl CC 25-mile time trial. Helen Tudor finished in 1hour 10min 31sec and Pete Norman in 1hour 14min 52sec.
