Espoir rider Dan Martin of the University of Bath CC showed his potential with a stunning win at the VTTA Kent 10 on Sunday. In a tight women's category, it was Charmaine Pullen of Folkestone VC who took victory.

The student produced a quick time of 19.22 to take the win, completing exactly one minute quicker than his closest competitor, Andrew Meilak of VeloRefined.com Aerosmiths.

John Cockrill beat his Abellio – SFA RT team mate Mark Barker to third place and it could have been even better for him with Cockrill’s time of 20.23 just a second of the runner-up prize.

For Martin, this was his sixth podium finish in as many events with two wins coming in the Thanet RC and Chippenham & District Wheelers events, both also over 10 miles.

That second-placed finish was good enough for Meliak to take the veteran’s prize with Mark Baker securing the second fastest veteran time. Fifth-placed Pete Elms of VeloRefined.com Aerosmiths was the third fastest veteran in 20.48.

The women’s category proved to be competitive with Charmaine Pullen of Folkestone Velo Club taking first place with a time of 23.38, just over a minute faster than Nicola Goodban of Thanet RC’s 24.39.

Just 15 seconds down on Goodban in third was Sarah-Anne Lucas of Folkestone Velo Club in 24.54.
