The 2025 VTTA 10 Mile National Championship is organised by Royal Albert CC and VTTA Scotland and uses the WW10/03 course on the A78 dual carriageway from near Eglinton Country Park down to Meadowhead roundabout near Auchengate and back.
Last year Dewhurst (Ride Revolution Coaching) posted an impressive age adjusted time of 18-05, while Oakes (Team Ohten Aveas) took the open category with a time of 18-46 on AAT. New champions look likely to be crowned in both the open and female categories, with Dewhurst not competing this time due to work commitments and Oakes likely to be riding abroad at the time of the event.
