British MTBO Championships
Posted: 09/06/24
The weekend saw three great events which also counted as part of the World Masters MTBO series. Based around Falkirk we were treated three excellent events in three brand new to MTBO. The weather conditions were cold and windy but the conditions in the forest were ideal as the tracks had dried out. Many thanks to Bob Cherry , Steve Smirthwaite and Arnie Saltums for planning some challenging courses.
Congratulations to all those who took part and particularly the category winners. The overall champions were as follows:
Calender Park Sprint - Ian Nixon and Janine Inman
Devilla Long - Ian Nixon and Janine Inman
Beecraigs Middle - Alistair Powell and Janine Inman
Janine did a clean sweep and took the series trophy but a mispunch by Ian left the way open for Alistair to take the series.
