Liz Powell (Mike Vaughan Cycles) was victorious in the Warwickshire RC Open 10 at Dunnington, Warwickshire on Sunday, sweeping home more than a minute ahead of the other entrants.
Powell’s time of 23.30 was enough to take a comfortable win ahead of Fay Barrington (Team Cherwell) who crossed the line at 24.37, as the riders raced around Salford Priors and Alcester.
Jessica Rhodes-Jones (Beacon Roads CC) took third falling just short of Barrington in what was a tight battle for the runners-up spot, whilst back in fourth Vicky Smith (AeroCoach) on 24:57 finished 17 seconds clear of fifth-place Keri Parton with 25:14.
