Round 3 of the Parentini Wessex CX league gave us a new course on the Foxhill motocross circuit at Swindon, hosted by ASE Racing and Hargroves Cycles and our 24 youth racers knew they could expect one thing – hills. Overnight rain also added the extra potential for mud which was plentiful in the youth races.
It didn’t slow the kids though – Tilly Wilks was first U8 girl, William Dyer 3rd U8 boy, Eva Mar-Molinero 2nd U10 girl, Tom Wilks 5th u10 boy, Sky Martingale 5th U12 girl, Monty Flavell motoring through the field after a couple of slips to take 3rd, with Stanley Phillips 4th in the U12 boys. Max Darnton 5th U16 and a win for Lucy Phillips in the U14 girls – taking the Parentini series leader jersey too!
Special mention to Louis Kirk who had to complete his race in the hardest gear after a mechanical – no mean feat with all those hills!
