Conditions overall were not too bad underfoot or on the bike, with only a few really muddy sections and …

Round 3 of the winter XC series was just up the road at Haughley Park. A merry band of Wheelers assembled to take on the best and toughest course of the season, the weather was mild and over cast – which is better than the snow and rain we’ve had the last few years. A great run from Clem Wallace …
