12/05/2016 - Walls and Partington Shine at League

The second week of the Brooks Cycles Track League saw the numbers up even higher than last weeks record start to the season with 58 competing in the main league and 27 in the youth freewheelers competition. The weather was kind again with blue skies at the Lyme Valley Velodrome, Newcastle, Staffs.
