Charlotte Marshall and Conrad Moss were in a class of their own in their respective categories as both triumphed in the Plymouth Corinthian CC 50 on Sunday morning in Devon.
Conrad Moss (Nopinz) powered to a huge margin of victory to finally seal his hat-trick of wins so far this season.
Moss finished fourth in his last open event outing in which team-mate Marcin Bialoblocki romped to victory, but Moss emulated his colleague’s dominance this time out as he took victory by over seven minutes.
The 44-year-old clocked a winning time of 1-40-42 to secure his first victory in over a month.
Moss couldn’t be touched but Josh Coyne (BPM Coaching) led the rest of the field, finishing second with a time of 1-48-09.
Coyne’s record this season has seen him take six victories, primarily over the shorter distances of 10 and 25 miles but he will be encouraged by a solid placing in his first open 50-mile time trial on record this year.
Sandy Gourley (Penzance Wheelers CC) was victorious midweek in three-up action promoted by his own club, but had to settle for his seventh podium in solo events this year with a time of 1-48-53.
In the women’s category Charlotte Marshall (Royal Navy & Royal Marines CA) was nearly five minutes better than second place in her victory. The 27-year-old finished her run on 2-05-48.
In second place, Martina Geraghty (Penzance Wheelers CC) clocked 2-10-35, managing to pip Catherine Hilton (Sid Valley CC) by ten seconds.
Hilton was unable to make it back-to-back victories after winning the Alltrax 10 earlier this month.
