Winter League Round 3 27/12/22- The Clare Mackintosh Memorial

January 4, 2023January 4, 2023
by douglas.little

Definitely Wintry weather for round 3 of the League. Well done to all of those who braved the snow and cold. Vince and Cammie set up a nice technical loop which was made extra spicy by the snowy conditions. Cammie stormed to victory to get his hands on the antler trophy. Many thanks to Vince and Cammie for setting and marking the course, to Jacqui for doing the timing and Leon and Jack for manning the soup kitchen. A huge thank you also to everyone who contributed towards the £166.41 raised for Marie Curie. The next race is at Glen Loy on the 15th of January and is being run by Mark Clark.

by douglas.little

On a dry but cold day 26 riders took part in the main race and 10 took part in the junior race, in the 2nd of this years Winter League series. This was a new new venue for the Winter League and was hosted by Leon Simms. The amount of effort that Leon put into organising the course and hosting was very much appreciated by everyone! Fair to say that this was a good old fashioned xc winter league race with some fierce climbs, almost unrideable bog and lots and lots of mud! Many thanks to Lance and Ruari for all their efforts in putting together the course and thanks to everyone else that helped with marshalling and timekeeping.

by douglas.little

Well done to all the racers ( both young and not so young) who took part in the second round of this years Winter League. Despite all the efforts of Storm Arwen Mark Clark laid on a couple of great courses. Special mention must go to Gary Macdonald, who despite trying to ” fatten” up and also having no motor, managed to complete one more lap than the rest of the field. Many thanks to Mark for all his efforts, and everyone else that helped with the marshalling, timekeeping and baking! The next race is the Claire Mackintosh Memorial race on the 28th of December, run by Vince and Cammie at Nevis Range.
