Adam also moves into the lead of the short distance BAR with an average speed of 27.510mph, with Ken Thursby second and Simon Gibbs third.  Lesley Bennett leads the women's short distance BAR, with Caroline Rochester and Miriam Jessett needing to ride the final club 10 to qualify.  In the Vets BAR Dave Robinson leads, with once again Ken Thursby second and Simon Gibbs third.
