Today's low turnout boosted the BIP cohort participation rate: 38% (17 women in a field of 45 starters)—back towards the levels it enjoyed just a couple of seasons ago.
The previous ATTA ride at Hopeland was Campbell McDowell's fiftieth and today, at the start of his second fifty, he showed his intentions, posting a great PB (an improvement better than 3km/h). Pater, Scotty, however still manages to stay ahead of his son and occupied the event's 'hot seat' for a while having established the new Men's Road bike record for the Lovekin Sausage.
Ann Brinkamp was the first woman home and had quite a lengthy occupancy at the head of the BIP leader board and only dropping one spot when Marion Mundt took over the lead with Lauren Humphreys settling for third (with a PB and the inaugural Road bike record for women). Marion was the only sub-30min BIP rider, posing an interesting speculation: will 30km/hr be the cutoff for the BIP speed groups and will we see three groups again or only two this season?

We first saw Alec Vukovich ten years ago in Busselton at the Cycling WA ITT Championships that we timed. He rode in a non-championship category. But we hadn't seen him again until last year at the Hillclimb Championship when he finished third. Now he's apparently in a hurry, making up for lost time with five more rides since June, the last four of them with the fastest time—like today!

It's probably unsurprising that twenty-three of the riders today, 51%, rode road-bikes—the hot dog course with its ten dead U-turns and drag uphill five times is well-suited to bikes with greater manoeuvrability than the less agile TT bike. It will be interesting to follow the relative performance of riders on the two bike styles through the series now that there are separate categories for each.
