March 13th, Baldonnel Roubaix

Pat Ferris edged out George Gamble by a half a wheel in Sunday’s Baldonnel Roubaix. Both had a time of 52:31 for the 23 km early season road race. 2010 series winner Gary Hilderman was third at 56:17. Kevin Shaw was not far behind despite a late start to get 4th at 58:25. Adam Currie was 5th at 1:03:41. This is Pat Ferris’s 6th win on the Baldonnel Roubaix loop, over the past 16 years.

Ready to go at -10C

 

Thanks to Sandy McDonald for timing!

Conditions weren’t bad for this difficult winter race series. The temperature was -10 C with a chilly overcast and the roads recently snow ploughed. The gravel road portion was covered with packed snow and the pavement mostly dry. It was a lot colder as compared to last year’s sunny, warm and dry conditions.
