Tom Murray (IG-Sigma Sport) took his first win of the season in the Wansbeck Australian Pursuit race in Northumberland on Sunday. The handicap groups came together halfway through the 47 mile race, Murray was clearly on a mission & attacked with 2 other riders who held off the 10 man chasing group till the last lap. Murray attacked again & this time he stayed away, only Dan Smith (Velo 29CT) could stay on his wheel but it was the Huddersfield rider who was strongest up the finishing hill to take the chequered flag.
Abby Mae Parkinson (RST Racing Team) won the Under 16 Girls race at the Barkston Circuit Race League event on Saturday at Grantham, Lincolnshire on Saturday. There was no luck for team mate Gabriel Cullaigh in the Boys race, he was in a breakaway with James Shaw (Forme-Cycleshack) & as they started their sprint for the line Cullaigh was blocked by lapped riders & finished in 2nd place. Shepley youngster Leon Gledhill had a great ride for 3rd place.
Huddersfield rider Alastair Wareham (Team Swift) & team mate Simon Beldon were an impressive 4th place out of 34 teams in the Hull Thursday RC 2-up 24 mile time trial on Saturday. Wareham & Beldon clocked 49min 41sec, the event was won by Sportscover-Altura RT duo John Tanner & Colin Humphrey with a time of 47min 59sec.
