Event Report
Thanks to Brendon Smurthwaite for planning and organising an excellent event. //
//After 3 weeks of uneventful weather and nice fast trails, Friday night decided to bring sleet and snow! Saturday morning weather was much improved but the roads and trails were left wet and slushy. //
//Despite this we had a total of 30 riders who braved the conditions and, I hope, enjoyed getting wet, cold and dirty for 2 hours. Thankfully everyone got round safely.//
//Congratulations to class winners: Generation - Steve and Ben Collins 330pts, Ladies - Karen Blackburn 256pts, Mixed - Andrea & Steve Foster 285pts, Senior Men - Duncan Archer 390pts, Veteran Men and Overall - Martin Vesty 397pts.//
//Thanks to everyone who turned up despite the conditions, with special thanks to Adrian & Jemima Parker for bringing the Maps & Descriptions and helping me set up signage etc. //
//Finally just a quick reminder that the next event is at the Squinting Cat, Harrogate on the 16th February.//
//Please email nymboevents@btinternet.com if you had pre-entered and decided not to ride due to the weather. You can have a free entry at Harrogate.
