News: South Staffordshire & Shropshire RR League

A CRASH which resulted in a rider being taken to hospital by ambulance led to the abandonment of round 10 of the South Staffordshire & Shropshire Road Race League.

This week’s round was the first of the series to be held on the traffic free closed circuit at Sundorne Sports Village in Shrewsbury.

Due to the size of the circuit the event was split into two races with the slower groups competing first before the faster riders.

With the first race together at the halfway point a touch of wheels led to four riders crashing and the race was stopped while an ambulance was called. The decision was made to abandon the event.  … continued after advert
