Katie Lukas continues her impressive season with a new NLTTA ladies 10 mile record in a brilliant time of 21.16. This was done on the 18 August in the Wigan Whs event on Levens.
Katie beat Tanja Slater’s 2007 record by 3 seconds. Katie now holds the 10, 25 and 50 NLTTA records 👏
Congratulations to Richard Bickley, Border City Whs, and Katie Lukas, Beacon Whs, on their respective wins in the VC Cumbria 50 on Saturday, 4 August and both setting new 50 mile NLTTA records.
Richard’s ride of 1:42:18 was 39 seconds quicker than Steve Irwin’s 2017 record.
Katie’s awesome 1:57:05 took an amazing 5 minutes and 41 seconds of Charlotte Boothman’s record set earlier this season.
A quick mention for Phil Jones, Transition RT … Phil also broke the previous record, but started 10 minutes behind Richard so, unfortunately, his great time won’t figure in the NLTTA record books.
NLTTA 10 Championship
Congratulations to Phil Jones, Transition RT, and Katie Lukas, Beacon Whs, our 2018 NLTTA 10 champions 
Phil’s impressive time 19.44 was 11 seconds quicker than 2nd placed rider Richard Bideau, Pendle Forest CC (19.55). The third podium spot went to Border City Whs rider, Richard Bickley, with 20.01.
Katie’s great form continues with a brilliant winning time of 22:38. Charlotte Boothman, ABC Centreville, took silver with 23.09. 5 seconds behind, Debbie Moss, Merlin RT, was third with 23.09.

Thanks to all riders for supporting the event on what turned out to be good night for racing.
