Winter
Regional Round 5 - 20th March 2005
Members of the Royston Rockets BMX
Racing Club travelled to Ipswich for the final round of the East
Anglian Winter Series last Sunday. The track was recently resurfaced
after the winter weather had made it unrideable so for the first time
the 55 riders taking part were presented with a good racing surface.
Following his win in round 4,
Royston’s Ethan Lewis moved up to Formula 4 where he took a hard
earned 7th with older team mate Louis Burton in third in the main
final. Formula 3 had three riders from the Rockets with Kyle
Gutteridge also having moved up from Formula 4 taking 7th in the
“B” Final and James Handleigh took the win in the B Final whilst
Ben Gutteridge finished in a well deserved 5th in the A Final. Another
Rocket who had qualified to ride up a class was Wayne Gutteridge who
raced to 3rd in the Formula 2 B Final and the last Rocket to race was
Richard Townsend in Formula 1, who took a hard earned 3rd in the
“A” Final. At the end of racing the host club presented three
awards to riders selected for their attitude, determination and effort
and one of these awards went to Royston’s James Handleigh whilst the
other two awards went to riders from Milton Keynes and Braintree.
