Paul Burton took the overall win while Kirsty McSeveney continued her fine form with victories in the Hampshire RC 10 near Greatham on Saturday evening.

After a string of placings outside the top three earlier in the season, Burton (Paceline RT) made the best of quick conditions and topped the timesheets for the second week in a row, this time by a slim two seconds.

So far this season Burton has finished sixth on three occasions with a fourth place thrown into the mix. But with two wins in a row, his season has well and truly kicked off.

The 37-year-old set the early pace and his 19-33 withstood over 100 riders’ efforts, the closest being just two seconds shy.

Felix Wilkinson (Velo Club Montpellier) and Kevin Tye (VeloRefined.com) happened to be equal closest in 19-35 – Wilkinson a serial winner in 2019 already.

Burton’s efforts denied Wilkinson from recording his seventh victory in twelve events and what would have also been Tye’s second win.

Kirsty McSeveney (a3crg) was fastest female, by sixteen seconds to be precise. Her time of 22-48 takes her win tally to six in just eleven events this season.

The 38-year-old’s nearest competitor was Marianne Holt (Team Bottrill) who clocked a time of 23-04, fourteen seconds better of than third placed Deborah Smith (Southdown Velo).

Quickest junior was Vaughan Marris (Jam Cycling RT) in 21-36.

In the tandem category, 2017 Closed Circuit Champion Rachael Elliot (Newbury RC) won for the fourth time in as many events. This is her first season back competing since suffering a stroke which left her blind in one eye.

Elliot made her welcome return to the roads this year alongside tandem partner Ian Greenstreet (Aeroacoach) and they wasted no time in getting to grips with it as they sped to the quickest time of the day in 19-04.
