It was a great night for some action around Hetton Lyons Country Park. Registration is always busy the first week with riders completing the paperwork etc but we got sorted in the end. The first race of the evening was on the shorter 0.40 mile course which still inc singletrack sections and a climb. There was some great battles going on throughout the 10 min race with parents giving them plenty of encouragment. Amila C U10 was 1st, Owen D U12 2nd & Daniel S U10 3rd. Then it was onto the older ones which were on the full course 1.20miles for 25+mins. Again there was some great battles taking place during the race and some were taking it very serisouly. Joseph A U16 led from the start to come in 1st, Anna K U16 2nd & Olivia F U16 3rd. Then it was onto the main race @ 7pm. The sun and gone for the today and clouded over but still dry conditions. Michael H took the led on lap 1 and held onto it until half way around lap 5 when he had a tumble on a corner so Dean P Sen pulled through into 1st place and took the overall in win covering 8 laps in 46.05mins. Close behind in 2nd place John B Sen 46.10 then Mark S Sen 3rd 46.13. Age cat winners - V40 Mark M, V50 Andy M, V60 Colin M, Jun Daniel H, Lady Amelia T. A full set of Results have now been uploaded into the Results Section and a Gallery of photos uploaded as well for you to have a look through and download if you like. Next Wednesday is Rd2 - same time, same place but different course!
ps Apolgies for parts of the tape missing but we had problems with the local youths snapping the tape. We replaced it nearly a dozen times but could not keep up with them! Remeber to keep your eyes out for the white sprayed arrows on the ground and marker tapes in the trees / bushes as well. Regards MBE Crew
