It was a much deserved perfect weather night for a change. We had 13 riders at the 5:30 start and 2 others that had done the hillclimb earlier in the day. 

There were 3 newcomers (Nicolas, Owen and Jeremy) and one sort-of newcomer (Ellen) who came out to race this evening. Perhaps it was the lure of food and beverages that awaited us at the top courtesy of the Chesterfield General Store (thanks folks - this is a first!).

The only PR tonight was Sam by 13 seconds. He remains atop the hillclimb men's leaderboard while Melissa stands on the women's top step. Overall men's leader is Andy while Melissa is also the women's overall leader.
