WELWYN TRACK LEAGUE – 17th JULY 2015
Sponsored by Peloton Hatfield
Charles Page takes the 10
17/07/15 at Welwyn Wheelers track league meeting Sponsored by Peloton Hatfield and supported by Herts County Council. Saw 21 youth riders take to the track and 31 senior riders.
The senior A racing saw John McClelland (Bush Healthcare CRT) tighten his grip on the title wining all but the 10 miler. This race was taken by Charles Page (Edgeware RT) who out sprinted McClelland to take a somewhat shock win.
The senior B racing saw a battle throughout the night between Alex Pierce (Willesden CC) and James Ambrose- Parish (Lea Valley). Ambrose-Parish mostly came out on top, though an aggressive piece of riding saw Pierce take the win in the scratch race.
The youth AB racing gave Alexi Edwards (Palmer Park) a lesson in group riding. Edwards was by far the strongest rider on the night but in the block pursuit his efforts resulted in splitting up his team. By 4 laps to go he was on his own trying to beat a well drilled team of 6 riders. Sam Asker (Welwyn Wheelers) led this group over the line to take the win, with Edwards and the rest of his team failing to finish.
Tom Sharples (Welwyn Wheelers) won all the youth CDE races apart from the handicap race.
The Senior A madison which was due to take place on the 31/07/15 is going to be moved back two weeks to the 14/08/15. If able please sign up to ride, or come down and watch as it promises to be the best evening of the racing series.
