This years’ Club Cyclocross Championships was a points competition run over 4 rounds of the Welsh CX Championships. We introduced a competition last year to encourage riders to support the most local races in Welsh Cyclocross league, which includes our round at Newtown and it provided a tough and lively competition. It encouraged more members to ride more events and much muddy fun resulted.
Cross is a great way to get into competitive cycling and the promotion of the Club Championship has proved a great way to get more members giving it a go. With events across all age ranges it is a family friendly event, often with grandparents, parents and children racing on the same day.
The series has been a great success, with over 50 club members taking part. It has been especially successful with the club’s juniors, 30 of them entering the series.
The four events in the series were:
23rd September – Foxley
30th September – Aberystwyth
13th October – Carmarthen
21st October – Newtown
Unfortunately, Round 3, at Carmarthen was cancelled due to bad weather, tough on those who missed the first round, but that is the nature of points competitions especially in a winter sport.
All the rounds were hotly contested, with some tough racing and the series has helped boost rider numbers in the Welsh series.
