Ixworth Cycle Races 2016 Results

Since commencing the organisation of the Ixworth Cycle Races the West Suffolk Wheelers have tried hard to publish accurate results, but with a multi-race, multi-lap format on a short circuit, this has always been very difficult, particularly coping with wide ranges of abilities in some races leading to some riders being lapped several times, and mixed genders and age groups in the case of some of the kids races and an ever increasing demand for instant and complete results.

This year, at significant expense, we decided to try transponder timing, but backed this up with video and manual lap scoring. However, we have experienced various technical and logistical problems with this and have ended up with three sets of results that do not correspond ~ not to mention a great many complaints from riders and parents, some of which have been unacceptably vitriolic, bearing in mind that the whole team are VOLUNTEERS, organising this meeting for the good of the sport!

We have now arrived at the following results, which are not complete, but the best we feel we can be confident of. Polite comments are welcomed to: admin@westsuffolkwheelers.co.uk.

Ixworth Criteriums - May 2nd 2016

Welcome to the West Suffolk Wheelers Ixworth Cycle Races 2016.

West Suffolk Wheelers and Triathlon Club are promoting an eight race criterium programme in the picturesque village of
Ixworth on the bank holiday weekend. Ixworth is located 3 miles North of Bury St Edmunds on the A143. The course is on
a closed road circuit which makes for fast exciting close racing offering spectators the opportunity to see close up; many of
the UK’s finest riders battle out for top honours.

East Anglia’s premier day of circuit races are aimed at riders of all ages and abilities. Held on Bank Holiday Monday May 2nd,
it has consistently produced fast exciting racing, close finishes with often the need for the photo to decide the places.

The course, a demanding circuit of over 900m centred in the village of Ixworth is good test of rider abilities. Race winners
will need to have good speed backed up by excellent bike handling skills and the desire to be the first over the line.
This is very evident in the children’s races, which often produces the most competitive races and the most enthusiastic
crowd of spectators and Mums & Dads.

Spectators basked in sunshine as they lined Ixworth High Street for an afternoon of cycle racing promoted by Bury club West Suffolk Wheelers on Bank Holiday Monday.

The red vests of children who take part in the club’s Tuesday evening Go-Ride cycle training at Priory School were prominent among those watching the quick-fire sequence of eight races run off in perfect conditions.
