Kim Little sped round to score one of the highest placed finishes in the series by a GDW rider, getting round in 1 hour 2 minutes 54 for sixth place. Charles Rees was also going well, completing the course in 1.05.14 for a 12th place finish. James Chant was 25th in 1.13.52 and Chris Mullett was 29th in 1.16.19.
