Friday 9th May - Spring in Park 1 at Cyclopark

Ellen, Hope, Polly and Hannah were all at Cyclopark on Friday evening for the first event in this ten week series.  Seasoned racers, Polly, Ellen and Hope were all keen to build on their experiences from last year, Hannah was keen to take a look before committing to racing, wise tactics indeed.

Harvey, looking liked he enjoyed the race!

It was great to see some of our friends from Southborough Wheelers (Jack, Marc and Harvey) and well as a few old rivals from Team Darenth and Wigmore.  Hope has moved up into the U10's since last year, while Ellen and Polly still have a year to ride in the U12's.

Fantastic riding from all three riders; starting well, staying upright and finishing smiling. Ellen is demonstrating her race face!  Hope took the only podium postion coming 1st in the U10 Girls and 11th overall, while Polly and Ellen finished well; 5th Girl and 10th Girl, and 14th & 24th overall.  

For me it was great to see the confidence with which they all approached their racing and their obvious pleasure in the improvements they've made since last year.  Great Work Girls, I am very very proud of you!!

Congratulations to Harvey and Jack who raced in the U12's and finished 20th & 26th and Marc who joined the U14's for the first time and finished 16th.
