Veteran Neal Parkin (Team Bottrill) took victory by 14 seconds in the Rutland CC 10, while Madeline Gammons (Jadan CycleSpace- Vive Le Velo) took a clear women’s win.

Parkin, aged 42, took his fourth victory of the season in a winning time of 20 minutes and 34 seconds.

After finishing second last time out on the O10/1 in the Tickhill Velo Club 10 in 20-39 Parkin went five seconds faster on this occasion to take victory.
