Eastlands Velo ‘cross at Clayton Vale
The first event at a new venue and a very succesful promotion for Eastlands Velo.
Top honours in the eight lap senior race went to Ian Bibby (Science in Sport, pictured left), who, after an eventful race managed to relegate long-time race leader Rob Jebb (Wheelbase) into second place by seven seconds. Jebb had led from the end of the third lap when his leading companion Bibby ‘disappeared’ from his back wheel, with what Rob presumed to be a mechanical fault.
Third place went to Wheelbase’s Stuart Reid, whilst first veteran and fourth placed rider was David Stevens.
Martin Woffindin put 23 seconds into the previous week’s winner Gill Cycles’ Hamish Fletcher-Cooney in the youth event.
No surprises in the Under 12s event Sam Turton (Ribble Valley) took his second victory in as many events.
