MEG GIVES DUCATI BIKES IT’S FIRST NATIONAL PODIUM
TEAM MAKE 7 PODIUMS IN SIX RACES

First year elite rider Meg Britchard took all the glory at this weekend’s National Mountain Bike Series in Scotland in her only second elite race, with an outstanding performance to take third place and Ducati bikes first Elite podium.

On a course that has a vicious climb at the start and very demanding technical single track sections, Meg rode a peach of a ride, slowly working her way through the field until the last lap when the gap between her and third place was only a matter of meters. Putting in a storming last lap to all the joy of the rest of her team- mates, she crossed the line hands aloft to take the third spot.
In the earlier races, 14 year old Beth Crumpton got the team off to a great start by following on from her success in Round 1, taking her second first place of the series in the juvenile category, and with Hannah Shenton picking up a second place in the youth race. The team were on a roll.

The junior race was no different, and with 2 riders there was high hope of success. As the race got underway it was our National champion Annie Simpson who led the field away with Carla Haines in third. As the race progressed there was hope of a second win of the day, but as we have learnt in Mountain biking its not over till the finishing line, and picking up a slow puncture on the last lap meant Annie had to settle for second place. Carla battled away behind the team again had more to shout about at the finish as she secured a fine third place securing 2 for the podium.
What a brilliant days cross country racing.

WHITE BIKES ENDURO SERIES ROUND 2

After Saturday’s brilliant start to the day young Beth Crumpton repeated her success again by taking first place in the womens 25km race, competing against all age categories, such an outstanding result for the 14 year old, and podium number 6 for the weekend.

With Annie Simpson off to the European championships with the Great Britain team, and Round one 50km winner and yesterday’s hero Meg off to ride the trans Alp further north, it was up to junior Carla Hains to ride the 50km for the team and with out disappointment. In extreme heat she secured our 7th and final podium of the weekend with a brilliant second place, competing against riders way above her age and making the long trip to Scotland a trip to remember.
