Undaunted by the 147-strong field of elite young riders, aged 12 to 17, and the fast pace, Jensen got on with the job in hand and smashed his personal best by 40 seconds.

The Alford Wheeler junior clocked 23min 03secs which was good enough for fourth in the 14-years age group, and fastest Lincolnshire rider, and 58th overall.
