2up team time trial - results and report (17/03/2012)

The second race of the Nomads' calendar took place on a grey and damp St Patrick's Day but 17 riders graced the Bedforshire roads with their presence. With a shift to Saturday racing James Gomm's strategy of enticing club members and our friends from Stevenage, Welwyn and Team Salesengine seems to be paying early dividends.

A range of pairings saw Neil Fraser and Simon Alibon nick the verdict by 13 seconds with a very tidy ride.
