Oxford University CC romped to victory in the Ben Owen Memorial Race finishing almost four minutes ahead of nearest rivals Oxford City CC.

Led by John Tuckett, the fastest rider on the night, the University team proved a class above in the ten-mile technical course on the Brightwell-Cholsey circuit.

Tuckett raced home in 21mins 59secs, with clubmate Danny Axford second fastest in 22.11, and City's Mark Jones next home in 22.24.

The winning team of five riders, with the top four to count, completed the course in a combined time of 1hr 31mins 18 secs.

Oxford City A came home in 1.35.08, with Didcot Phoenix A third in 1.36.53.

The team time trial first took place in 1990 and is held every year in memory of former Didcot Phoenix rider Ben Owen, who tragically died of leukaemia at a young age.

His father, Chris Owen, presents the trophy to the winners every year.
