Silverware for College Cyclists in Team Time Trials

September 14, 2015 at 6:35 AM

The Auckland Team Time Trial Series finished on a high for the College cyclists, with the riders earning an impressive number of medals and trophies. In sunny yet windy conditions, the final meet was held at Pukekohe Raceway on Saturday. The event was the seventh race of the championship series with special honours also up for grabs for Finals Day victories.

The Senior A Girls' team carried on their domination of the competition, picking up their fourth win to claim the overall title as well as defending the Kingsford Cup for being first on Finals Day. The girls also took out the Partridge Cup for setting the fastest time during the season. The Senior A Boys' team finished second on the day and second overall by just one point to Auckland Grammar. They maintained their grip on the James Faulding Memorial Trophy by setting the fastest time of the series.

The Junior A Boys' team was back to its winning ways, crossing the line nearly a minute ahead of their nearest competitors. The Junior A Girls had a great race in the battle for the Merv Harland Shield, finishing second to Baradene.

The U14 Boys' added to the medal tally with gold from their race, while the Senior C Boys' and Senior C Girls' teams won bronze in the Most Improved category.

Congratulations to everyone who rode for Saint Kentigern College on Saturday and during the series.
