Skedaddle Spring Series 2 - Frith Hill - Results and Photographs
by Paul Howard, 13 Mar 16. Results [ 1» ] Photos [ 1» ]
A glorious spring day greeted riders for round 2 of the Skedaddle Spring Series at Frith Hill. It was a gem of a course with elements of Decembers Brass Monkey Enduro but with some sections run in reverse. There were plenty of twists and turns, and more exposed roots than usual so you had to concentrate all the way round. Yet it flowed well up and down making good use of the little elevation available so attacks could be made and riders were soon out of sight. There was plenty of close fought racing across the categories and as we move to Round 3 on the 10th April at Area 51 near Frimley Green it's all to play for in the final Series positions. These will be updated and published later this week so you know who to look out for.
We're grateful to Schwalbe Tyres who were a flash sponsor today for handing out product to random finishers. Thanks for your support. Also a lucky Veteran Plus rider won a Skedaddle holiday whilst lined up ready to race.
Our event photographer Kevin Sheldrake was lurking in the woods, links to his photos are available above with the Results.
Gorrick has many very supportive local retailers who spend a lot of time, effort and money to make our races happen. In return we help them so we're pleased to announce that Mountain Trax of Barkham near Wokingham is holding their annual MTB Demo Day on Saturday 26th March. There will be all manner of bikes from XC machines to trail bikes, Fat bikes and Plus size tyres, and women's bikes. Pre-booking and full details are on www.mountain-trax.com.
