Morgan Williams (New Forest CC) won the final round of the UK-Biking Moreton Race Series. Fast fading light saw a shortened race and the 45 minutes + 1 lap was never going to be long enough for the scratch group to make the catch.
The yellow group of Williams however spent the race attacking each other before calling a truce for the last lap. Williams took the initiative, leading out the sprint and crossing the line with a shout, he clearly wanted it more. Jay Eastwood (Primera/Specialized) led the fast boys in, out of the points but the overall was his for the third consecutive year.
Eastwood has won 18 races in that time, such is his dominance. At the prize presentation in the village hall, the series winner was quick to acknowledge the hard riding of his colleagues in the scratch group. Asked if he would share the prize money with them all? Eastwood joked he would like to but his Primera team mates wanted their share!(a team celebration is planned for what has been a great season).
Wet weather bookended the series, torrential rain causing the first race to be abandoned, with rain falling steadily on the last few laps of the final round. Numbers were down slightly on last year, but organisers Richard Lang and Steve Dring are already planning for next year.
