MATLOCK Cycling Club’s hilly 25-mile time-trial took place on Saturday in bitterly cold conditions.

A total of 16 riders braved the course which starts in Rowsley before climbing through Youlgreave to the Long Rake, then Monyash, down the A515 to Newhaven before descending to Grangemill with the final climb towards the Miners Standard before a downhill finish to Alport. Peter Colledge won in a new veterans’ record time of 1hour 6 mins and 17 secs. Arch rival Chris Green settled for third with mechanical issues, and Sheffrec Cycling Club’s Daryl May took second in 1hour 9mins and 45 secs. Youngster Patrick Smart put in an excellent display to finish in eighth spot in 1:17:05. Christine Howard finished as first female in 1:29:18 for 14th overall. Next week riders will do it again with company from other club riders as MCC puts on its annual Open Hilly Time Trial.
