From blistering heat to mud, rain and wind at Leverhulme park - Proper cyclocross conditions on what was a well designed course.
Biketreks Racing Team's John Dodgin and Nic Bertrand competed in the Senior event. After a good start and riding comfortably in the top 15 John unfortunately had to pull out because of a rolled tubular tyre. Nic once again didn't have a great start but was, relatively speaking, happy how he felt his riding was progressing from the previous week finishing in 33rd place, one lap down on race winner Nick Craig (Scott UK). Results on North West Cyclocross Association website.
Many thanks to Horwich CC for a great event.
We are all looking foward to a double week-end of cyclocross racing including Rapha Supercross on 15th October at Brockhole Lake District Visitor Centre on the shores of Lake Windermere - ideal opportunity for all to try your hand at cyclocross and watch some good racing.
