Rob Jebb (Wheelbase) took the sweetest of victories today in his native Bradford in the fourth round of the British Cycling National Trophy.? Conditions were muddy and tough, and the course was very demanding for most of its length. Jebb’s success was backed up by Lewis Craven (Wheelbase), who took 6th position a mere 41 […]
Another great day for NW riders – who took the first three places in the senior event and the team prize, third year running, for Wheelbase.
