For round seven of the Wessex Cyclocross League, we headed to Kingsclere, Newbury once again. With fog making it hard to see, the course featured two sets of hurdles, a long climb to the finish and a variation of different corners, including one on a certain off-camber. It was a chilly day but no less interesting!
