Charlotte pics



Charlotte's dad Andrew just sent me this piece from their local paper:

Double Champion Gets Funding.
Cornwall BMX Racing Clubs British and National champion Charlotte Green 13 has been awarded a grant to help with training and equipment. Sports Aid south west has given Charlotte a £500 award in recognition of her outstanding results from last season.
Charlotte from Threemilestone has been riding BMX for 9 years said,
“The money will help with coaching and travelling expenses as there is only 1 track in Cornwall and I need to practice on other tracks as they are all different.
Charlotte has also been picked to ride for Alans BMX/Shimano DXR, for 2007 the top BMX race team in the country.
Charlotte’s Dad said,
“She has a huge opportunity this year to step up a level and with the support and training she will receive from Alans BMX/Shimano DXR race team we hope will enable us to go racing in Europe in 2008. BMX racing is in the Olympics in 2008 Beijing and there is a chance Charlotte could go to the Olympics in 2012 in London”
This year Charlotte will be racing 13 - 15 year old girls in the National series because there are not enough female riders to make a 13 year old girls age group. Even so there are high expectations that she can win this group and take the championship again this year.
