Ciclos Uno LVRC Hog Hill - Sunday 21st Sept 09

Sun 20 Sep 2009

Two North Road riders, John McDowall and Richard Somerset, were involved in the lower circuit hour plus three laps circuit race. Both were active at various times, with Richard holding a more dominant postion at the front of the race than John, who chose  a more eclectic range of bunch postioning. 

The bulk of the C/D riders were caught early in the piece, although two had escaped and remained away to secure the first two places. 

A touch of wheels bought two riders down with a lap to go, with John next in line behind the crash some momentum was inevitably lost for the final gallop to the line.  Richard secured seventh spot overall (2nd best A cat rider) while John battled in one place further down than his team-mate.
