Tom Hutchinson

Tom Hutchinson and Frances Owen were fastest male and female riders respectively in the Burton and District CA 100-mile time trial staged on the Derbyshire/Staffordshire border on Saturday.

Riding for Team Bottrill, 25-year-old Newcastle-based Hutchinson covered the A100/4 course in 3-14-50 to take the win by more than five minutes from Tim McEvoy (FTP Fulfil the Potential Racing), while Neal Parkin joined his Team Bottrill colleague on the podium with third in 3-21-58.

And in the women’s event it was 29-year-old Owen (Fibrax Wrexham) who took the win in 3-42-10, more than eight minutes quicker than her nearest rival Emily Martin (Weaver Valley CC) in 3-50-34, while third female was Lancashire Road Club’s Erica Booth in 3-51-34.

Owen’s time was just eight seconds away from setting a new women’s national competition record.

Conditions were almost perfect for the event, which takes place on the A50 between Etwall and Uttoxeter. Light winds and warm temperatures meant that many riders were celebrating personal best performances.

One rider who was celebrating a personal best by almost 18 minutes was women’s winner Frances Owen, who has been in great form this season with fifth in the National 100-Mile Championship as well as eighth in the National 25-Mile Championship.

Frances Owen

She will be targeting another good ride at the National 10-Mile Championship this weekend.

Hutchinson’s win will give him some comfort having been joint second in the National 12-Hour Championship which McEvoy won. Having been part of the winning team at the National 50-Mile Championship last weekend, Hutchinson is clearly a man in form.
