WARM, still conditions bought a bumper turn-out of 32 riders for the latest of Worcester St John's Cycling Club's evening time trials.

Saints' Gavin Poupart put in a super-fast 22 minutes 19 seconds for the win around the Old Hills 10-mile circuit.

Malvern's Rob Wood was just 11 seconds behind, while Saints' comeback king Nathan Priest took third in 23-56.

Rushwick's Marcus Walker, of Bush Health Care RT, was the fastest veteran over 40 in 24-11. Gail Flanaghan's 31-13 was unchallenged for the ladies' competition.

Other times: Simon Wilson 24-07, Adrian Bird 24-57, Dave Walker 25-01, Sean Dyson 25-16, Steve Price 26-02, Richard Graham 26-24, Rob Finch 26-25, Steve Price 26-34, Jim Sharrock 26-38, Justin Barnett 26-49, Garry Sutton 27-10, Mark Elliot 27-12, Chris Smallman 27-14, Steve Potter 27-19.

Saints' junior section has a new member in Holly Page who has joined father Vince and brother Joe in the saddle.

She made a good start to her career by winning the under 10s race in round 11 of the Midland Mountain Bike Series. Joe was second in the under 12s, with Vince winning the fun event.

Worcester brothers Paul and Steve Dring (Stilton RT) competed in the Witham Wheelers 70-mile road race at Grantham. Steve won the five-man sprint for seventh place and Paul was 15th.
