Knowles stays upright A team of six from Hastings and St Leonards Cycling Club competed in the Kent League two day event at the weekend. Sixty riders set off on Sunday afternoon to cover the 86k first road race stage based around Benenden in Kent. The cold wet and windy conditions were to take their toll leaving just 24 finishers, including five of the hastings men. Mark Knowles finished highest in seventh place, followed by John Sharples ninth, Frank McCleod 12th, Chris Kitchenham 21st and Paul Panagi 22nd. Both Chris and Paul were suffering chest infections and colds. The following morning a 16k time trial was held at Frant where the intrepid five’s placings were reshuffled with Mark Knowles fifth, Chris Kitchenham ninth, Frank McCleod 13th, John Sharples 15th and Paul Panagi 18th. With tired legs, 21 riders set off on the afternoon’s 100k final road race stage around Frant and Wadhurst. All five club members finished with these overall positions: 5 Mark Knowles, 10 John Sharples, 12 Frank McCleod, 15 Chris Kitchenham, 16 Paul Panagi. Event: |

Gruelling bike race Five members of Hastings Cycling Cub competed near Chichester on Saturday in the Sussex divisional road race championships. The Hastings lads did well with Frank McLeod seventh and Paul Panagi eight in the seniors after a gruelling 90 miles. Juniors Mark Knowles and Chris Kitchenham made sure they covered every breakaway. The tough uphill finish proved too much for some when a trio of riders locked handlebars and hit the deck. Mark and Chris escaped the carnage to cross the line in second and fifth places. Mark repeated his second place in the previous weekend’s Kent League road race where the club’s position was consolidated by John Sharples taking the bunch sprint for third position. Chris Kitchenham scored yet another personal best and the first club rider ever to go inside 21 minutes for ten miles. His 28½ mph ride in the Hainault Road Club event at Shenfield, Essex placed him eight overall and first junior in a field of 120 competitors. Chris is now fastest junior and senior 10 mile club record holder with 20min 53sec. Event: |
