40k TT #6 OF ROCK CITY CYCLES TT SERIES: RECAP & RESULTS

A smaller field on a slightly cooler evening, but some fast results put down nonetheless. It's pretty rare to see our mens 40k course record go down, and tonight was the closest anyone has come in a few years. Courtenay native Nigel Ellsay (Silber Pro Cycling) made his debut on the MIVA course and set the second best time ever with a 53:09. Curtis Dearden's (2013 Canadian TT Champion) holds the record at 52:59 from June 11, 2014. Paul Auton took second place in 58:31, and Sean Lunny (RCC) third in 1:02:21...edging out arch nemesis Joel Lutz by only 29.4 seconds.

Lorrie Baildham took the female win with a PB of 1:07:21, with Rose Houle in 2nd knocking nearly 4 minutes off her 40k time.
