A brilliant weekend away with the junior boys. Ride over Hardknott on the Saturday followed by a CX race in Ulverston on the Sunday.
The idea was to spend time together as a team, letting the boys shop and cook for themselves.
It was great to see the boys bond as a group and then the following day support the younger riders at the CX race before then all taking part themselves.
As a club, it was great to watch the kids: Holly, Eliza, James, Hendrix, William, Max, and Bailey in the under 10 and 12 year old races. All really putting the effort in.
In the under 14 race we then had Molly, Nate, Harry and Red all going toe to toe with each other. Nate coming out on top from the 3 musketeers this week.
Toby had another great ride for 2nd in the under 16 race.
Then Tia and Kate in the women's race, followed by Simon in the over 50 race.
Then in the main race it was red and white all over the place.
Davey, 3 bikes Harper, Charlie, Tom and Cameron all took part, Cam coming away as first junior with an exceptional ride.
Harper had gone from last on the grid to 4th place by the end of lap one.... however he suffered from a constant set of mechanical failures.
Davey looked really really good when not on the floor. Tom suffered a mech straight off the line and Charlie also had two flats.
But each one of them really embraced the spirit of the race.
In the seniors (same race) Jake enjoyed himself getting on the podium, Ben, Alex, Andy, Adam and Steve all took part too, making it 26 riders for the day.
It's great to see someone like national level road racer, Jake, on the same course as little Eliza and everything in between.
Really proud day and very enjoyable weekend.
Barrow you did a great job putting on a great event.
