Bravo to Titouan and Joe Blackmore for their dominate wins at Beastway and Southern XC respectively. Titouan again demolished the competition, secured his third win in as many weeks and winning. Stan rode a strong race at Porridge Pot Hill and Harrison completed a team 24hr Enduro.
Despite these stunning results, rider of the week must be shared with Amelia, who probably had one of her best races this season at the Southern XC, finishing a very strong 3rd, despite not doing a trial lap.
Back on the road – a good turn out for Gary’s Many Cols D’Sydenham ride. It’s reported that the youth were predominately first up most of the climbs. Luke surprised himself (not the coaches) by powering up the climbs, with Oliver and Amelia showing true grit right through to the end.
