On Saturday, he raced the Circuit of Ingleborough classic around Ingleton and Settle - organised by Nelson Wheelers CC. The 27 mile race includes 610m of climbing and some fast descents. Tejvan finished in a time of 1.00.52 an average speed of 26mph. The time broke the 18 year old course record previously set by Gethin Butler. Tejvan was two and a half minuters faster than second place Simon Bridges of Manchester Wheelers.

The next day, on Sunday, Tejvan rode a 10 mile hilly time trial, organised by Ilkley CC. In this race, he finished 1st place in a time of 23.50 - just five seconds ahead of Henry King (Ilkley CC), but good enough for a second course record in two days.
