Despite the fact that the winds were light, most deemed the night to be a slow one. This tends to be the case when the wind is from the South. Still, a third of the pack improved upon their 2004 WTT 15km previous bests. Of these, the most substantial gains were measured for our two youngest participants - Minime (13-14 yrs old) cyclist Stephanie Clarke and Cadet (15-16 years old) cyclist Isabelle Marinacci.Note that sorting relative to the Year-Series Previous Personal Best might not give a good measure of one rider's improvement or consistency relative to another rider's improvement or consistency, since the previous bests for these people may have occurred under very different weather conditions. For relative comparisons, you can click the "EF" checkbox (Event Factor) which will give performance ratios which we can use to compare improvements relative to the other participants. An explanation of what is done is available by clicking on the "EF" link in the table.
