A great night for a TT with only a light but favourable breeze gave a night where many PBs were improved for this season, and where more points were scored to move people around in the overall points table.
Half way through the Championship now, and Jim is stretching out a lead in the points table, Matt Sayle still running strong in 2nd and Nigel Woods jumping from 8th to 3rd with a greatly improved PB this week, but there is still plenty of time for big improvements with a maximum 25 points for the biggest improvement each week, so come and have a go. As a reminder about the series – there are 10 qualifying Guardian Cup events, your best 5 scores are the ones that go to the overall, so if you’re late to the game this year, you still have time to get another 5 rides in that will count towards the championship!
