Saddle Skedaddle Spring Series 5 - Tunnel Hill

by Paul Howard, 19 Apr 09. Results [ 1» ] Photos [ 1» ]

What an awesome track and a fabulous way to end another very successful Saddle Skedaddle Spring Series. Highlighted Tunnel Hill trails had to be The Whoops, Lemon Tart and Treacle Tart, plus The Trenches. Well done to all who rode and have kept our events the best attended XC in the country, thank you. The results are now published, and TimeLaps apologise for the issues they had with their timing systems. Rider photographs by Joolze are also now published, both are accessed via the links above. The Series Points positions have been updated for all Categories which can be accessed in the Spring Series section. The other lucky winner was Russ Watts whose finishing position was selected in the Veteran race to receive a Saddle Skedaddle Holiday, well done Russ.

We'll also take this opportunity to thank all the category sponsors for their continued support and especially Saddle Skedaddle for the holidays and Mountain Trax for providing the race numberboards all series. Please make an effort to support these sponsors who put so much back into our sport.

Martin Delves took the Sport series by storm with three wins
and two thirds, obviously finding time to style it up.

The Masters decided a trackstanding competition
at the gun would be more entertaining!

Viv Hazelton is a Tunnel Hill local so made the best
of her practising on Saturday to take the Sport Women win.
