The Reg Pearce Memorial race proved to be a great success attracting a field of 79 riders on the challenging K48/10 out and back course.

On the day a rich bounty of cash prizes were made available in 4 separate criteria plus 3 spot prizes for overall position.

Promoting clubs Stafford RC and Born to Bike were well represented with 18 club members on the start sheet.

In the overall Hanna and Dominic Noone were the fastest Stafford RC riders and Susan Semple and John Locock fastest Born to Bike riders.

The overall fastest on the day were Keri Parton (Pro Vison Cycle Clothing) 23:45 and John Locock (Born to Bike Bridgetown Cycles) 22:23
