April 20, 2012 (Nanaimo, BC) – On a very wet windy, and cold, cold evening, four riders completed the club’s first time trial of the 2012 series on Nanaimo River Road. Two were returning riders and two were new to our events. The lone man, Ian Drown, did a creditable 29:03 in his first attempt at 15km. In the women’s category, newcomer Katy Condon did a very good first 15km in just over 28 and a half minutes, having ridden out to the course beforehand. Janna Gillick, starting last, overtook all the other starters, and finally finished a great ride in 24 and three quarter minutes with Colleen Wtorek, who was first off, almost 5 minutes slower.

It’s heartening to see riders out on such an unpleasant evening and bodes well for the numbers later on in the season.
