Posted below are results of 17 weeks of racing from the 1996 season of the Pt au Roche time trials, running from May through September. We do not know if the missing week, July 31, was rained out, or if we simply lack the results.
These result show 48 different riders recording 197 times, including three solo rides of the 25-mile courses but all the rest on the 10-mile course.
Brendan Breen posted the season-best time of 21 minutes and 51 seconds, just twenty seconds off of Kevin Duniho's 1995 course record. Jon Parks also dipped under 22 minutes, recording a 21:58.
Breen and Parks
were the season's top riders with six wins each.
|
Breen had four second place finishes, Parks had three. On nights when they both rode, Breen won four times, Parks three.
Neither of the two placed below second, but
Charlie Mitchell beat each of them once, so each of those three strong riders placed ahead of the others at some time during the season.
Mitchell rode seven times and scored three wins, a second and three third place finishes.
Mary Duprey was never topped in the women's competition.
The busiest Wednesday saw 20 riders participating.
Dave Bilow rode 16 of the 17 weeks (see July 24) while Don West rode 13 times, followed by Ralph Senecal with 12 rides.
