Aoraki Road Cycling Championships

By TBHS | Posted: Tuesday July 2, 2019

A cold frosty morning on Tuesday 18 June had the promise of sunshine all day, which made for the best weather we’ve had out on the Levels Raceway for Aoraki Road Cycling in many years.

We arrived with a strong team of thirteen riders amongst a field of over 60. All of our Timaru Boys’ riders made podium finishes, and as a result we collected the Championship Cup for 2019.

Our junior team of Jani Mclennan, Josh Young, Will Hutchison, and Ferg Sail took out 1st in the Team Time Trial, with Sail also getting third in the scratch road Race.

Seniors had stunning results, especially when all three teams took 1st, 2nd and 3rd on the team time trial.

Team: Ollie Smith, Thomas Allan and Stephen Garner 3rd Team Time Trial

Team: Leroy Dunn, Harry Taylor and Connor Horsley 2nd Team Time Trial

Team: Sam Ritchie, Hayden Jefferson and Benji Ward 1st Team Time Trial

Jefferson also took two 2nds - the senior Road Scratch Race and Individual Time Trial, and Ritchie won the Individual Time Trial.
