Alex Napier (Blazing Saddles) was in winning form in the East Sussex CA 100, staged on the G100/861 course near Hailsham in East Sussex on Sunday.
In-form Napier clocked 3:46.48 to win by almost six minutes from his nearest rival, Pete Morris (ASL360), while Peter Pav Bryan (Rye and District Wheelers) completed the podium in third, almost 11 minutes off Napier’s pace.
Recent results from Napier have seen him finish second in two 50-mile time trials – the Hampshire RC event on July 3 as well as the Southern Counties CU 50 in late June.
Bryan took third by just three seconds from Steven Kane (Brighton Excelsior CC) who had to settle for fourth on this occasion, while fifth spot went to Howard Shaw (Eastbourne Rovers CC) who was five minutes further back.
Fastest of the women was Southborough and District Wheelers’ Pip Jenkins who clocked exactly 4:31.00.
