Alansbmx/Shimano DXR Team Report: Round 3 Cheddar



A great on performance on Sunday by our team, especially as we were down to just 5 riders again (your best 4 score team points).

Luke Tamblyn
Luke won his first ever Junior Male event and we are so stoked for him, this is one of the toughest classes there is. Well done Luke! His win moved him up into 3rd in the points.

Charlotte Green
Unfortunately Charlotte crashed in practise and tangled with another rider, resulting in a broken tibia, but we're hoping that she will only miss the round.

Kye Whyte
Blitzed to 1st, looking smooth as always. 1st in points.

Jack Clarke
3rd in his final, but a DQ of another rider moved him up to 2nd, Jack's now sitting good 3rd the series points, 1 point behind 2nd.

Warren Bancroft
"Wozza" sat out the 1st two rounds due to his knee injury, but after an Asterisk knee brace supplied by our sponsor Madison Warren got the brace on Thursday and immediately felt at home with it and brought home a 2nd place in Elite Men. Without it he wouldn't have been able to ride. Elite Men run three finals, all to count he won two of the but got a bad gate in the second final and he could only get back to 6th. Has to been seen as a favourite now for the Elite Men title this year.
Warren just sent me this note:
I enjoyed the weekend, the Asterisk knee brace was very good, its rather weird to walk in but its not made for that purpose, but to ride my bike with it on i was very impressed. I did'nt even feel that it was on my leg while racing, I had no restrictions it was perfect and i would recommend it to anyone with a knee injury. my bike is running perfect as always i had no probs with anything. I love the kit and helmet it all feels great!! so i am very impressed with everything this season so far!

Bradley Minns
Bad luck on his 20", but a win in Cruiser. Second in points, just 5 off the leader.

Alix Deakin
Although only a part-timer Alix made the main in Jr Men and got a 7th.

Special thanks to Jack's parents, Lewis and Lisa, for taking the van down this weekend.
