Hogben 80km TT
This trophy was donated by the Hamilton Century CC (precursor of HCC) in memory of Gus Hogben. Gus was superb time triallist who lost an arm but continued to ride and win. Ultimately he was killed by a drunken driver in the late 40’s on Lakeshore. The award was originally open to any club riders and until recently for an 80km TT. In 2004 it became a 40km event due to a lack of interest in riding 80km.
