Alistair Miller took first place in Caithness Cycling Club’s weekly 10-mile time trial on the Watten road, with a clear advantage over Iain Miller and Gary Angus.
Conditions were pleasantly warm but again dogged by a strong south-westerly wind of over 20mph, making for hard going on the outward, mainly uphill leg.
As a result there were no season’s bests, although Iain Miller was only four seconds outside his, followed by Jessica Simmons at 12 seconds.
Times: 1, Alistair Miller, 25.15; 2, Iain Miller, 26.06; 3, Gary Angus, 27.08; 4, Angus MacKay, 27.20; 5, Roger Broughton, 28.09; 6, Alasdair Washington, 28.24; 7, Steve Fraser, 33.15; 8, Jessica Simmons, 34.18; 9, Julieanne Leslie, 40.30.
Iain Miller gained the maximum of six points in the Handicap League and edged closer to leader Gary Angus. With four events remaining, competition for the medal places is still wide open.
Handicap League: 1, Gary Angus (45 points); 2, Iain Miller (37); 3, Alistair Miller (34); 4, Angus MacKay (31); 5, Chris Gregory (28); 6, Colin Earnshaw (26).
