9 Velo Club Rutland racers lined up for the 7th round of the Friday Summer Series Mountain Bike races at West Lodge Rural Centre near Desborough on Friday. The course was fast and dry, and included some tricky technical sections through an old quarry, and some wooded singletrack sections. Seniors and Juniors were set off first, followed by Veteran categories and then finally Ladies and Youth riders. An initial start loop was included to try and spread riders out before launching into the quarry section, but the technical nature of the course meant for close racing with riders needing to find quick and clever opportunities to get past their rivals. VCR had some great results as follows: In the senior class Jonny Lloyd finished 12th and Nathan Bradford 32nd. In the Vets Martin Imison was 14th, Darren Wood 24th and Peter Martin 31st. And ladies 2nd for Amelia Cambridge and 3rd Becky Cunnell. Matters conspired against Lee Wigginton and Ian Bradford, who due to mechanical failure didn’t finish
This week the series moves on to Bulwick Estates for round 8.
