MIVA 40KM ITT, NANAIMO RIVER ROAD 120711

MIVA 40KM I.T.T. Nanaimo River Road

July 11, 2012

A nearly perfect night. More traffic on the road than usual as school is out and lots of families head to the Nanaimo Lakes formed by widening of the river. Still , only eight riders showed, possibly because of the Gran Fondo Axel Merckx and the triathlon last weekend.

Don Gillmore did another good ride even though his second 20km was over a minute slower than his first. Janna just failed to beat her personal best for the distance by nine seconds and newcomer Jason Hare finished third in the mien’s category having ridden a number of ten, twenty-five and thirty mile time trial back in England some years ago.

Seven year old Ian Gillmore rode a very good twenty km on his mountain bike at just under twenty kph, accompanied and encouraged by sister Megan and mother Anita.

All members please note that there is no event next Thursday.
