Location: Mansfield Track, Forest Town
Event: 16 April 2012
The first Forest Town track league took place on a cold, overcast evening but the rain held off on Monday night.
After some hard work by the club volunteers the track looked at its best with a newly painted datum line. The hard work paid off as the first evening saw a record number of entries for the opening evening in the seniors, free-wheelers and youth categories.
A total of 45 entries saw some exciting racing with last year’s senior champion, Ben Green taking on the rest to start his 2012 campaign. Two of the youngest riders aged six and seven years raced in the freewheelers competition.
Thanks to the officials and helpers all bodes well for the forthcoming leagues.
