Owens Cycles Road Team July update
Posted on 23 July 2010 by Sean
July has been a busy month for OCRT with plenty of new members signing up and taking to the roads.
Two riders (Tim Riches and Brian Truman) have recently secured Cat 3 status after strong performances in local events.
In the process, Riches recorded the team’s first victory in the Portsmouth Mountbatten Stage race but luck deserted him last weekend when he was involved in a 40mph crash at the WXCRL Summer Road race in Dorset. Thankfully bike and bones remain in one piece but he won’t be sitting comfortably for some time!
We’ve also seen strong team presence and performances at both the LIDBA and Petersfield Ups & Downs events recently. The latter event saw Truman and team mate Dave Trevena put in powerful performances to finish in third and fourth place respectively.
New riders keen to join are very welcome. Sunday rides depart from Petersfield Square at 8.30AM and take in 2-3 hours. Weekday evening rides, check the website for details:
