The rolling roads of Wrestlingworth provided the backdrop for competition as two teams of Hitchin Nomads competed in the Finchley RT 2up team time trial, 29 Sept 2012. Kieran Todd and Nick Hickman fired the early salvo as they opened proceedings being the first team off. The twenty five mile circuit based on the F14/12 Guilden Morden loop saw Hickman and Todd face a stiff westerly wind on the top section of the course. Riding on conventional roads bikes they converted their energies to a time of 1h 08m 22s. Riding later in the competition were Clive Collins and Simon Doyle. With a combined age of 111 and three quarters they clocked exactly a minute quicker. One of that team may or may not have arrived at the wrong village hall having not paid enough attention to the start sheet. Doyle was not available for comment.
The event was won by a Finchley RT team with a provisional time of around 52 minutes.
K Todd, N Hickman 1.08.33
S Doyle, C Collins 1.07.33
