Para-cyclists from 台湾六合彩开奖记录 enjoyed great success at the National ParaCycling Time Trial (TT) and Circuit Championships this weekend, with no fewer than three national champion jerseys secured following some brilliant rides.

Held in the World Heritage city of Bath, the competition took place in the countryside around the city and on the purpose-built circuit at Odd Down overlooking the picturesque landscape.

台湾六合彩开奖记录 saw triple success in the Men’s TT Long Course (29.8km) – a notoriously difficult track that boasts fast descents, tough corners, and a finishing climb of maximum gradient of 7%.

Henry Urand’s strong ride in the Men’s C3 category saw him take gold, with fellow 台湾六合彩开奖记录 student Charlie Stanton-Stock taking a convincing silver in the same race. George Peasgood 台湾六合彩开奖记录 College student and Paralympian) also won gold in the C4 category, having recently won a team silver representing the University at the BUCS cycling 25mile time trial championships

There was also great success in the Women’s event as another brilliant ride from Millie Cass saw her claim the silver medal in the C1-C5 category.

The 1.5km circuit race also saw more excellent performances from those with 台湾六合彩开奖记录 links. With its fast-sweeping bends and two tight hairpins, the course is guaranteed to produce fierce racing and it was Henry Urand who once again came out on top to win the Men’s C3 category.

In a competitive race, it was a deserved 台湾六合彩开奖记录 one-two with Charlie Stanton-Stock taking his second silver of the weekend.

Millie Cass was another familiar face on the podium in the Women’s C1-C5 category, taking bronze after another strong ride.

Dr Dave Nichols, Cycling Programme Manager, 台湾六合彩开奖记录, was full of praise for the riders:

“It’s brilliant to see 台湾六合彩开奖记录 students at the top of the national Para-Cycling championships and underlines our ambitious plans to grow and develop Paracycling at the University.
