Southern XC Rd 6 - Checkendon 23 August 2015


SXC1


A truly fitting end to the Series at Checkendon with rain and sunshine which made the course a real test of handling skills and fitness.
As usual Will Taylor took it all in his stride and wrapped up the series with another 1st place the Expert cat only being beaten once in the 6 series race.
Unfortunately Ian Petherbridge had a mechanical on lap 1 and came home 4th enough to to pick up 2nd in the Series and only 4 points away from 1st in the Super Vet cat. We are all gutted for you Ian.
Ben Connor tried his luck at the shorter distance and managed a great 6th in the Open, Ollie Fenton came 9th in the Sport and Steve Calland 26th in the Veterans cat.
Well done to all, there was a lot of speculation that 2015 would be the last Southern XC Series but luckily another organisation has stepped up to the plate to continue this excellent series.
Good Luck to all next year.
