Result: Boxing Day CX (Kenilworth)

James Swadling (8point8 Group) took an early lead in the 66th edition of the Coventry Road Club / Ride Coventry Boxing Day Cross and never looked like being caught. He crossed the line almost a minute ahead of Richard Jones of Renvale RT, with Joshua Jones of ZeroBC in third.

The women’s race was won by Karen Summers who started slowly but passed Fran Whyte (Velobants.cc) at the end of the second lap and continued to forge ahead, Lindsey Newman (Team Jewson-M.I.Racing) took third place.

The large contingent of veteran riders in the field was led home by a consistent Darren Atkins (Zannata Ride Coventry XGear), with Steve Knight (Team Jewson-M.I.Racing) and Jason McNulty (Royal Leamington Spa CC) in second and third. Dave McMullen (Cotswold Veldrijden) was the first Veteran 60+ rider home.
