Brooks Cycles Track League

Story posted June 23, 2010; thanks to Chris Pyatt

Due to a date clash with the Tour Series event taking place in Stoke Town Centre, the Brooks Cycles Track League was moved from its traditional Thursday night to Wednesday. The organisers were concerned that they may have taken the wrong decision when looking at the Freewheelers league attendance however there was a healthy turnout in the main league that raced under blue skies.

The A Class League saw Robert Lambton, Brooks Cycles, the top points scorer. Robert is gradually getting back to his best form after missing a month with a knee injury. He won the opening 10 lap scratch race as he attacked with three quarters of a lap to go to win by 10 metres. Veteran Steve Clayton, Planet X, was another who had a good night as he scored 7 points with wins in the Course de primes and the final 10 mile Scratch.

The B Class races saw Ryan Whatmough, Shepherd Cycles, dominate the nights events with wins in all the races to score 14 points. This has also increased his overall league lead to 22 points over Sam Birchall of Lyme RC. Sam had a good night also as he scored 9 points. The Youth races saw a good spread of point’s scorers with league leader Joel Partington, Lyme RC, top scoring with 8 points. Joel won the Devil and Scratch races displaying good bursts of speed.

The Neil Potter sponsored handicap league event, saw league leader Phil Houlton again win from his ever decreasing mark from the fast improving Joffie Houlton, Lyme RC. The Freewheelers League saw a lower than usual turnout which could have been due to the day switch however the thirteen riders who did attend put in some great rides with all scoring points. The top point’s scorers for each age group were;

Group 1 Joel Partington and Sam Pattison Lyme RC
Group 2 Liam Zwetschnikow   Lyme RC
Group 3 Olivia Braybrooke    Eastlands Velo
