Summer Regional Series Round 3 - May 25th 2008

Last Sunday saw the third round of the East Anglia BMX Summer Series and the weather returned to its worst with rain and cold which gave poor conditions in which to race and this kept the rider numbers well down and the spectators preferred to watch the racing from under any cover they could find.

 The Royston Rockets BMX Racing Club had 15 riders competing with the club’s youngest members competing in the Under 6 yr class where Kelly Newall was rewarded with an excellent third place after a meeting long battle with team member Louis Foreman who finished in 4th. In the 7yr class Royston’s James King won the class with Marmaduke Birt in 2nd whist Ethan Vernon took the win in the 8yr class with Oliver Snelling coming home 2nd. In the 9yr class Aaron Dalleywater finished in 2nd with Bradan Blanche taking 5th and in the 10yr class Zak Foreman finished in 4th just ahead of Matthew Harris who took 5th. In the 13 yr. class Aston Blanche was the class winner and in the 14yr class Jamie Hutchinson finished in 3rd ahead of team mate Ben Gutteridge in 4th. Wayne Gutteridge fought hard in the 16yr class where he took 2nd which the same position achieved by Darren Forman in the 30+ Masters category.

 The next event on the race calendar is the rescheduled East Anglia Spring Classic at Royston where the Rockets will again be out in force.
