Redgrave Cyclo Cross Monday, 25 November 2013 11:06 |  Written by Darren Baker |  
21 members of West Suffolk Wheelers & Triathlon Club competed in the latest round of the Eastern Cyclo Cross League held at Redgrave near Diss on 23rd November. A timed age category race ridden over successive loops of a heavy going and challenging course suited the more powerful and stronger riders. The event began with the Under 10s, and yet another superb ride from Charlie Knowler who again finished 1st. Fine finishing saw club mates Victoria Asker home in 10th, Harley Gregory (16th) and Grace Whitwell (21st).

This week young Charlie Knowler grabs the headline for his superb win in the Under 10 race at the very tough Eastern Cross League’s Mistley CycloCross event on Sunday. He made a great start and got to the front of the race on lap two, but was overhauled by Mark Lightfoot of CC Ashwell. Charlie then came back to retake the lead in the last corner to clinch his first ever CX victory. Harley Gregory again rode well to 9th place, (best Under 8), with Victoria Asker 14th and Grace Whitwell 22nd.

Mike was one of 17 West Suffolk members taking part in the event, taking advantage of our gazebo to shelter from the inclemency between races and enjoying the camaraderie and slightly biased commentary ! Others in the vets race were Simon Elsworth 39th, Adrian Grimwood 41st, Barry Denny 46th and David Griggs 59th, with Ian Mortlock a non-starter. Matt Denny was our only finisher in the Senior race, gradually improving in 53rd, with Richard Stiff retiring with a last-lap puncture and James Asker scoring a DNF – “too muddy!”
