Chris Hutchinson wins the 2014 Fliss Beard 100
The tricycle championship 100 for the Fliss Beard Trophy was won by Chris Hutchinson (Redbridge CC) who also took the handicap medal.
The event was held on four laps of a new course between Swaffham and Downham Market in west Norfolk, more than half of which was on unclassified roads. It was flatter than the Fakenham-based course used for recent Eastern 100s, but included some long drags. It was warm, mostly overcast, with sharp showers affecting some competitors and marshals but missing others.
Don & Heather Saunders and two further generations of their family were keeping track of progress at Swaffham – full details are given below:

A great ride by Chris proving his ability by walking away with the handicap as well as 1st place. A very well run event on a good course that was a pleasure to ride. It was great to ride once again in with a championship. Thanks to Martin the Championship organiser and Team Saunders/Davis. Pete is”happy”
