A clash of dates with the opening round of the National Trophy series meant I was hoping that some of the faster guys would be at Abergavenny, unfortunately that didn't pan out and I noticed Steve Knight on the start line!
I had a good start and rolled through the first lap just outside the top 10, even after tangling with the tape. I felt the strain at the start of the second lap and lost a few places, but seemed to settle in and pull some places back over the next laps. Managing to avoid being lapped by Steve meant I could fight out the minor placings with a guy I'd been swapping places with for the second half of the race, finally pulling away from him through the single track to take 15th overall (J/V/W) and 11th in the V40-49 race.

With the new kit on my back I hope I can keep this up and show off the HCtB colours through mud, sun and whatever mother natures wants to throw our way this Winter.
