09/06/2016 - Warm Night at track League

The Brooks Cycles Track League at The Lyme Valley Velodrome, Newcastle under Lyme, latest round took place on Thursday 9^th June 2016.The weather forecast did threaten rain in the event however although it was cloudy and very warm the rain never appeared and so a full program of events took place.   

The night started with the usual Freewheelers racing with only two groups this week however the 23 riders put in some great racing.After a program of 13 races the top points scorers in each group were as follows;

Group 1       Zac Edwards                                                       ,   Lyme RC     10 Points

Group 2       Euan White                                                              Lyme RC     8 Points

The winner was multi World Masters Track Champion Steve Cronshaw ( Brooks Cycles ) with Dan Cooper ( Lichfield CCC ) second and Chris Heaton ( Sportcity Velo ) third. In the other Sprinters League events there was a win for Phil Houlton ( Brooks Cycles) Barney Swinnerton ( SwinnertonCycles ) and Sean Mayer ( Swinnerton cycles ) in the Team Sprint and Sean Mayer ( Swinnerton Cycles ) won the individual Sprint Final from Joel Partington ( Sportcity Velo )

In the A Class Endurance events Matt Walls ( Velocity Global bikes ) won all the events in the the 10 lap scratch, devil, course de primes and the 10 mile..

The B Class races saw a large field compete with the points going to a large number of riders. The 10 lap scratch was taken by Alex Coates ( Lyme RC)  and later he won the devil. Emile Alexander ( Lichfield CCC ) wo the course de primes and the 10 mile .
