round 1 kids cyclocross

A great turnout for the first kids cyclo cross from ages 6-12yrs despite howling winds and hail storms 21 participants made the effort to attend and take part at Bude Junior playing field for the first in a 5 race series of cyclocross. The children had to negotiate a taped off loop on the grass with mounting and dismounting along the way to get themselves and bikes over the kick boards. Individual races were run categorised by age 7-9yrs and then 10-12yrs. The aim was to do as many laps as possible in a 10 and 15 minute time period. For those still with something left in their legs and lungs there were a couple of team relay events, by which time marshall's, parents and kids had had enough and the sun came out!!
