The leaderboard didn't stay static for long, as Simon Murphy stormed through the finish to lower the best mark to 00:22:07.
Ultimately, it was Sam McDonald who proved to be the class of the field today. pacing his effort perfectly to stop the clock at 00:20:48 and take the win.
Dan Whitehouse-Smith put in a valiant ride to secure 2nd place with a time of 00:21:12, while William Mead rounded out the podium in 3rd (00:21:26).
In the Women's category, Lindsay Clarke took top honors with a fantastic time of 00:25:58. Tonya Smith followed in second place (00:26:40).
The battle of the Road Bikes saw Michael Carter emerge victorious, clocking 00:24:32. Chris Cummings chased hard to take the runner-up spot in 00:25:32.
