Event Report
Well done everyone, what a fantastic turn out and thank you for all the kind comments on FB, following a dry night it was a shame that the rain in the morning made ground not as dry as last year, but I think you’ll agree that Mynydd Llangorse didn’t disappoint on the day.
It was great to see that over half the field again managed to nab at least half the points, so well done to you and I hope the extra time you decided to spend out on the course was worth it Ieuan Best!
It was a really close event with only 29 points & 2 CPs splitting to top 7 riders, well done to the top 3 on the day.
1st - Gary Davies M21 – 449
2nd – Ian Cartwright M50 – 440
3rd – Michael Holloway M21 – 435
The remaining results are
Y18 Teifion Best – 365

Next Event
Our next event is Sunday 12 June, in Govilon on the southern edge of the Black Mountains, where we hope to introduce you to some new trails around the Blorenge and Blaenafon.
Online entry is now open with very good discounts still available, all that enter before Wednesday 8th June will get a waterproof map and sent a sneak peek of the event map area.
Last but not least I would also like to give a big thank you to Gill & Ian for helping out with sign on, Amanda, Verda, & Eleanor for the catering and everyone for taking part.
