Juniors at Highams Park

Leonard wins his heat in the Under 10's.

Saturday 12th February saw the CCH juniors out in force again for Round 2 of the LYVCC Winter series at the tight Higham Park circuit. After an enjoyable ride over in the sun via the Crooked Billet and the old dog track the riders got down to racing in earnest on the 550m circuit at Highams Park School- where its small size meant larger fields had to race in heats then a final.

Ewan in the under 10's.

Leonard, Ewan, Elliot and new rider Cameron went well in the Under 10's with Leonard winning his heat and getting 4th in the final.

Isaac on his way to 9th place.

Bede, Logan, Isaac, Joe, Jake, Sam, Louis and Frank rode the Under 12's where Bede got a fifth place in the final. Unfortunately Frank found that netball and cycling don't mix when he had an accident whilst warming up and had to retire early but he may have invented a new sport...

Mostyn in his heat.

Mostyn and Jack rode in the Under 14's whilst Alex placed 8th in the under 16's.

The smallness of the circuit means spectators can see almost 90% of the racing and nearly all of the crashes where riders ran off the tight corners - making for exciting if nervous viewing for watching parents.
