Round 5 of the Banjo Cyclocross race series at Newbury was a night to forget for Max. Tired and not feeling well wasn’t a great way to start but kudos to him for grinding it out. He needed five results for the league so it had to be done.
Round 6 was different. Riding hard from the start, Max lead his rivals up to the last lap when there was only one left. The effort of the previous laps on the front meant that he wasn’t able to kick with Lewis and finished 8th. Time to focus on tactics when you’ve got a rider on your wheel lap after lap…!
Max finished the series in 6th with only 6 points between 4th and 6th. Some really strong riding and valuable experience at U14. Dad, Ben finished 5th overall in a highly competitive vets category so well done to the Darntons!
