![]() |
from Peter Waghorn – 14th June
Youth numbers were high despite many riders travelling early the following morning to the Youth Omnium series at Brighton and Bournmouth. Dave Legrys used his vast experience to win the first senior B group 10 lap with a well timed sprint to edge out Brian Evans. The B group Points saw no less than 16 riders score points in the 10 lap event with Gareth Richards winning with just 8 points to his name.
The senior A group was a battle between McClelland, Broadwith, Fry and Woolf but late arrival Andy Hastings triumphed in a rapid 10 mile to close the evening. The leading group was reduced to 14 by half distance and the numbers dwindled lap by lap with 8 there as the bell rang.
Joe Fry (RST Trigon) put in a blistering attack but was hauled in by Andy Hastings and John McClelland who took second place by inches in the last few metres.
In the youth categories – Jack Plumley dominated the A category, Will Raymond the BC group. The large group of CDE riders saw some spirited riding in the handicap events with Fraser Elsworth defeating the handicapper with two wins. In the closing 4 lap event 10 riders came into the home straight with Owen Williams taking the honours from Joe Kiely and Sam Asker
