The Royston Rockets BMX Racing Club had 14 riders competing over the two days of competition with the youngest being Ted Dalleywater and James King who both took 5^th place in their respective quarter finals – the worst position as only the top four move on to the next round. A good start to the qualifying races saw Daniel Blanche, Myles Fisher and Ethan Vernon move into the finals of the 9yr class where Daniel took 6^th in the semi final just ahead of Myles in 8th and Ethan took a heavy fall in the main final whilst challenging for the lead. In the 10yr class Aaron Dalleywater and team mate Bradan Blanche had another good start to the day although Bradan’s day finished with a 6^th in the quarter finals but Aaron went all the way to the main final where he finished in 8^th. The 13yr class saw James Handleigh making his way through to the main final to finish in 5^th and in the 14yr class Aston Blanche was another to finish with 5^th in his quarter final and in his first major event Andrew Brooker just failed to move out of the qualifying rounds in the 15yr category. In the 19+ class Richard Townsend’s took a very heavy fall in his first qualifying race but still managed to gain enough points in his next two races to qualify for the semi finals where he finished in 7^th. In the Masters (30+) category Darren Foreman finished his days racing at the qualifying stages but team mate Lee Alexander looked set to move through the semi final stage until he was judged to of contravened the rules of racing and was placed last although his day was not over as he still had his Cruiser class to come. The Cruiser 40-44 class saw Danny Ancell make it into the class quarter finals although he was unable to progress further but Royston’s highlight of the day was the return of Lee Alexander to the track in the same class where he led the pack round all day to take the title of British Champion and the right to race with the coveted “01” number plate.
