MTBO National League Final Results
Posted: 18/11/12
Saturday saw the final event of the 2012 league held on a postage stamp sized area on the outskirts of Sheffield. Killian Lomas did amazing to give riders a hour or more of quality riding on an area not much more than a kilometer square. You can read his report elsewhere.
Following this event was the prize giving for 2012. Fortunately for Killian he had already sewn up the overall Championship so being the organiser and having to sit out was not a problem. The overall Women's race was still to be decided with Angela Brand-Barker an Charlie Somers Cocks looking forward to a head to head on the last race. Unfortunately fate took it's course and Angela had to sit out due to a heavy cold letting Charlie take the honours.
Tony Brand-Barker and John Rawden have a history of nail biting battles going right to the wire and this year was no exception. It could not have been closer. In the end it was down to a mere 0.1 of a point that gave John the M50 title.
