Welwyn Wheelers RR/ERRL 07

 

By Tim Chandler

The Welwyn Wheelers Road Race a round of the Eastern RR League held on August 19 for 3/4 cats.

59 riders braved the weather to take on the rural Bedfordshire roads. The first lap saw the first attack from Stuart Wright (API Metrow), however a puncture soon put a dampener on his loan attempt. In total 7 riders were forced to retire with punctures, testament to damp / wet conditions.

The middle of the race saw the bunch back together, with each attack being countered. On the fourth lap Mark Arnold (API Metrow) took over from his team mate, attacking from the back of the bunch. This time lady luck was with him and on the last lap the gap was 2.30 mins. Mark was then able to cross the line on his own and enjoy the victory.

2 minutes later, Oliver Caddy (Cambridge CC) just stayed ahead of the bunch to claim 2nd with Simon Fox (GS Avanti) leading the sprint.
