Taylor Rides To NZ Title At National Club Champs

Wednesday, October 21st, 2009


Conway Taylor added another New Zealand title to the Cuddon Cycling Marlborough list, winning masters one men’s honours at the national club road cycling championships near Nelson yesterday.

In a Marlborough one-two finish, Taylor headed home fellow Cuddon club member Chris Heywood by 36 seconds. He clocked 35 minutes 35 seconds on the undulating, 25-kilometre Upper Moutere course.

Heywood took silver by a second from Pegasus Cycling Club member Nigel Pink.

Cuddon Cycling Marlborough picked up a second title when Rhonda Murphy was unchallenged in taking masters one women’s honours.

Ray Dunstan placed second in a fast masters three mens race, clocking 34.06, while Callum Saunders was fourth in the under-15 boys. Marlborough’s Bronwen Frazer successfully defended her national title in the senior women’s time trial. Now riding for the Nelson Star and Garter Wheelers club, Frazer clocked 36.12, five seconds clear of Gabrielle Vermunt of Southland, defending the title she won in Wanganui last year as a member of Cuddon Cycling Marlborough.

Former Marlborough rider Robin Reid saw the host club complete a senior title double when he took out the 40km senior men’s time trial in 52.45min. In a closely fought ride, Reid finished eight seconds clear of Hamilton City’s Justin Kerr, with double Olympian Chris Nicholson (Star and Garter) third. Reid recorded the day’s third fastest time overall, trailing under-23 riders Sam Horgan and Alex McGregor.

Horgan upset his more senior rivals to score the day’s fastest time and take under-23 honours with an impressive 51.49min.

The club nationals continue with road races today.

Saturday, October 17th, 2009

Stage three of the open grade event started with a 4km time trial along Conders Bend Road and Bedford Road, Renwick. Unfortunately the wet weather and a spill of diesel on a corner saw 5 riders fall, including the leader on time Jono Lee.

The event was ridden in a quick time of 66m 23s despite the heavy rain at times. With most of the field still intact Marty Bruce won the final sprint from Ethan Roach and Heywood. The handicap again went to Streeter from Stephen Rooney and Church.
The overall result saw Craig take the Curtis Piper Memorial Cup by 29s over Morgan with Todd Neal third at 2m 32s. the overall handicap went to Streeter (20pt) from Morgan (16pt) and Church (14pt).
The junior under 17 grade also started with the 4km time trial. Ethan Roach (5m 30s) set the fastest time over Will Hart (6m 16s) and Quin Karwowski (6m 28s). The handicap went to Daniel Cresswell from Karwowski and Hart. The final stage was a 20km massed start on the open course. Hart won the stage by sprinting in Karwowski and Nathan McIntyre. The handicap was again won by Cresswell from Karwowski and Hart.
The overall result saw Hart take the honours by 55s to Karwowski and Cresswell at 1m 59s in third place.
