Mountain Biking. Taverham, Nr Norwich. Fivebythree MTB Race Series Round 2. 21st October 2012. Sunday, 21 October 2012 21:01 |  Written by Paul Barry |  
Three members competed in the mountain bike race at Taverham Hall School, nr Norwich. Robin Lines (pictured) making his mtb race debut finished an excellent 5th in the 45 minute youth race. Later in the senior race, Dick Lines, also making his debut, finished a very creditable 33rd. Paul Barry (truanting from the Cyclo-Cross at Davy Down) finished 22nd. The course Youth and Senior course was technically challenging (more so than the average CX course) with plenty of climbing, singletrack, roots, mud and swooping descends. The mud added to the technical demands and meant more effort was required to maintain momentum. There was a 'chicken run' to avoid the most technically challenging section but at the cost of a few seconds. This is a great series particularly aimed at younger age categories and older riders new to mountain bike racing. Last Updated (Friday, 22 February 2013 20:07) |

Mike Lawson made his debut on his MTB steed, finishing 45th, Barry Denny 48th and Paul Barry 56th. Darren Baker also started but withdrew after a few hairy moments in the very slippery conditions. Then it was the turn of the Under 12’s, with Sam Asker and Fraser Elsworth both ceded on the front row of the grid. Unfortunately Sam crashed twice and retired, but Fraser rode very well to finish 7th. Max Bidewell came home 24th with Oliver Griggs 29th (6th U10) and Matt Whitwell 35th (9th U10). Well done lads. In the highly competitive Senior race Richard Stiff rode well to 62nd, with John Brooks making his debut , but retiring after a close encounter with some trees.
