After some good solid performances at the regional cross
rounds I was hoping for a good results at South Shields, the weather was somewhat
grey and windy, so it was your typical cross weather, The course consistent of
180 degree turns, a set of tall hurdles you had to leap over and a nice sand
pit to keep things interesting.
I got a decent start putting myself into top 6 for the first
corner and then boxed someone into placing myself now in 5th, then
an attack went half way through the first lap and two got away and I had to get
round two other rides to bridge across. Three of us were then away and clear
from the rest, it soon split so I was in a chasing group as a ride had
gone and attack and got away, and he
finished 37 secs in front of me by the end
I lost out to second on the last lap when the rider I was with attack
with 1km and I couldn’t get back to him and finished 3 seconds down on him, so I
was happy with getting 3rd place on the first national round and
hope to build and do better for the next one.
