Huddersfield Star Wheeler Mark Thaxter produced some great time trial riding with a win in the Wills Wheels 2up and a club record in the Yorkshire Cycling Federation 50 mile event.

Thaxter teamed up with Tom Broadbent for the 25 mile time trial to clock 53 minutes dead, over 90 seconds faster than the 2nd placed team.

The YCF event was held at Thirsk with the club record prior to the event being held by John Lancaster at 1hr 50min 44sec, set back in 1976.  Thaxter set off at a ferocious pace and although found the going tough over the last 10 miles, finished in a time of 1hr 47min 09sec.
