Ed Bradbury and Alice Lethbridge both broke the course record on their way to victory in the Gil Jessop Memorial 13.6-mile time trial, staged by Kingston Wheelers in Surrey on Sunday morning.

JLT Condor professional Bradbury sliced 49 seconds from the old course record when he clocked 29.18 for the GS292a near Hungry Hill, Ripley, beating John Dewey’s time from last year’s event.

And Lethbridge – the event organiser who rode for Drag2Zero – covered the course in 34.41 to beat her own record from two years ago by 23 seconds.

Bradbury’s time was 55 seconds quicker than runner-up Liam Maybank (Twickenham CC), while Pat Wright (Paceline RT) - the winner of last week’s Southdown Bikes 34km time trial - was 1-34 behind Bradbury’s pace in third.

“It was a really quick morning – this event is normally run in cold conditions, whereas this was the first time I’ve worn shorts in about three months,” said Bradbury, 25 and from London.

“I had it in the back of my mind that I might get the course record, but you can never be sure. But there was an extra £100 if the record was broken, so that was a bonus.

“There was a bit of a headwind for all the uphill sections, but the biggest difference was the warm temperature.

“This was the first time I’ve ridden this event. I’m back in the UK for a while between riding the Herald Sun Tour and New Zealand Classic, then I’m off to Majorca soon for the rest of the winter.

“This season is looking exciting for me, I hope to ride the Tour of Japan, the Tour de Yorkshire and maybe even the Tour of Britain.”

The winner of last season’s women’s British Best All Rounder and national 12-hour and 100-mile record holder, 33-year-old Lethbridge’s time of 34.18 was around four and a half minutes quicker than the next best female, Helen Gravatt (London Women’s Racing CC).

“I was really surprised to break the record again as I’ve done over 130 miles of training in the last few days,” said Lethbridge. “But the warm weather really helped.

“Apart from a little bit of overnight rain which left the roads a bit slippery, it was ideal conditions. I wasn’t targeting the record – I just wanted to do my best and remind myself how to ride the time trial bike again!”
