![]() |
thanks to Nev Pearson, Salt Ayre Cycling Association
3/4/W race 40mins + 3 laps
It was a large bunch who were still all together in the closing laps and experience counted when Rob Pye (Vanillabikes) took a clear win for the sponsors team ahead of Jon Green (Kuota) and the 2nd of 5 Vanilla’s in the top 10, Duncan Smith, in 3rd. Eve Dixon (Maxgear) was highest placed female again mixing it in the big bunch sprint and it was good to see Salt Ayre’s own youth rider Joe Baldwin getting into the top 10 against the seniors.

E/1/2 race 1 hour + 5 laps
Three times during the race a break gained sufficient gap for numbers to be recorded by the judge with Stuart Reid (Wheelbase), Steve Abbott (Teamwallis), Shaun Pearson (Ribble Valley) and Ed Clemens (Spirit RT) being notably active in 2 of them but with James Gullen (Team Hope Racing) driving the bunch it all came back together which was perfect for Jack Pullar (Madison Genesis) to use his sprint finish although he was pushed hard by Dillon Byrne (Maxgear) and rapid juniors Jack Sadler (Vanillabikes.com) and Henry Hunter (Teamwallis).
