Some great riding tonight with a new Category Best set by Veteran C Ron Amos!Here are the current top Veteran C Male databased results. Ron Amos (19:20), in his 50th year, had a season-series improvement of 4.47%. He did not exceed his database best time of 19:04 set on a difficult, gusty 2010-Jul-08 on which only 4 people posted season series improvements, but he has improved every time he has been out this year, and with the motivation of being in a new age category, it will be interesting to see what more he can do this year. Way to go to the 30 riders who equalled or bettered their previous season-series best and a special congratulations to the sixteen people who improved upon or tied their previous database best! It was also great to see 86 year old Geoffry Wright out there stoking a tandem that Ron Phillips was the captain of. Unfortunately they were stopped at the turn around getting assistance from turn-around volunteer Mike Bernier when I approached. Hopefully it was just a minor mechanical problem with the bike and they will be back for another go at it next week!
