Friday Night Summer Series 2008

by rick for everyone

The sunny weather was back, 90 riders raced the 3 mile course and Scott Rose checked in around 12.5mins per lap (winner). This course is demanding with a long Uphill to the finish so we made it 4 laps this year and enough sighs of relief, even euphoria eminated from depleted riders.

All in all a smooth event. Thanks to Cats (Neil,Ian,Andrew,Richard,Martin) and all the help. Leisure Lakes Daventry generously donated £40 to spot prizes for 5th,11th,15th overall and a tshirt was given to 10th, 20th, 30th over the line regardless of laps. Richard Pratt took some photos from the woods (couldnt upload to photos section) use link http://ricknewham.multiply.com/photos/album/6

Hey brilliant work rick putting up a report, this multiply thing is starting to work well, so come on other organisers and racers why not share your stories and photos too.

Good event Rick, and helpers. Glad to find the course had dried out, although the section in the woods was still a bit gluey. -Never did get the sharp left turn (which took you back up to the top of the woods) right. - I think I need to practice my running a bit more. See you at Kilworth.
