National 12 Hour Results Delayed: Duggleby & Lethbridge Waiting....


Adam Duggleby (Vive Le Velo) & Alice Lethbridge (DRAG2 ZERO) were forced to put any celebrations on hold as timekeeping issues delayed the result s of the National 12 hour championship.A stiff westerley breeze and rough road surfaces on the Chawton leg making it a far from easy day. Duggeby, who had led from the start, finished in the fading light, his time running out at 20:20 on Sunday evening (17th) on the A31 at Bentley in Hampshire. Duggleby's ride was not without incident, a softening front tyre forcing him to stop and change wheels at 175 miles, whilst behind the scenes, two of his support crew suffered vehicle breakdowns.
A provisional distance of 321 giving him the title and a new competition record ahead of Kieron Davies (DRAG2ZERO), riding his first "twelve", with a provisional 319 miles.
Lethbridge, looking strong all day,despite her saddle slipping down,looks to have won the womens title, the 33 year old provisionally beating her own comp record of 285.64 miles set last year, with 292 miles.
Event secretary Don Ashton of the promoting, Farnborough & Camberley Wheelers club, made the correct and only decision, to delay the results, making the announcement at the Alton Assembly rooms, event HQ, late on Sunday night.

Rider Reaction
Alice Lethbridge
"It was really, really hard to day because of the wind, into the headwind up at Chawton, i was down to 15 miles and hour and the road surface, i have got very bruised arms. Unfortunately i know this course, despite double padding on my armrests my arms are very bruised. I dropped a few bottles (laughing), oh i am really pleased, very happy, to get the 15 mile record last Wednesday and this today, yes very happy. Like last year I just rode on feel, i have my heart rate and power but i was feeling ok, perhaps i went out a bit too hard because i was not expecting the wind to pick up. I dropped the same amount of watts as last year but i was 20 watts higher average. I might ride a 50 next week, the it's the British Cycling Championships, which i am really excited about"
Adam Duggleby
" About 322,!It is really rough road up at Chawton and really windy, in the middle of day it was really hard work going back up. Between 6 and 8 hours i was not great but i had loads of drink and caffeine gels and felt loads better. Even the tailwind did not feel great but soon as it started to calm down towards the end of the day it definitely got better, the last hour and half it was pretty fast in both directions. I thought i should press on with an hour to go, i could see Keiron (Davies) was, i knew what he was doing, he had started gaining on me a little bit so i thought i better try and press on a bit, i knew i was up on him"
