Adlard Rob’s record course time in trial event

The penultimate week of the Glossop Kinder Velo summer time trials saw dry calm weather help to attract a strong field of 39 riders as another evening of record-breaking action took place.

Ben Gillespie set a time fast enough to take the course record back from Rob Smail, however his time was beaten by Rob Adlard who finished the course in a quickfire time of 21m 55s.

In doing so Adlard became the first man to finish sub-22 minutes.
