The Ron Day Memorial MK Bowl races – Race 8 -2nd July 2024 (Sponsored by Church Lane Creative).

A great night of fast safe racing tonight. Thank you to all 27 riders for coming out to race and support tonights event.

Due to the wonderful support of the Equipe Velo team helping tonight we were able to run the race outside into the East carpark after 30 mins insdie. Thank you Equipe Velo guys 😀

The ABCD race saw a strong 2 man break of Michael DArcy and Nick James go around lap 7. After winning the Prime Darren Farr continued on his own chasing hard but eventually went back to the bunch as did Nick James when a strong Michael DArcy rode away on his own. Michael stayed away to take another impressive win with the bunch sprint being won by Martin Quill.

The EFGH race mainly stayed together with a few attempts to get away by John Lacey. A fast bunch sprint was won by James Stewart who also took the Prime tonight.

Huge congratulations to all our winners.

With only 3 weeks to go until the end of the series 😢 (The bowl is closed to us due to a concert) there are still those points to grab for prizes sponsored by Corley Cycles RC and The Bike Bus.

I also need helpers for those 3 weeks please so if you haven’t helped yet, please can you put your name down or bring a friend to help in your place. Thank you

With a huge thanks to Ian Wild and team for a brilliantly organised championships, and congratulations to all competitors for making the races and particularly our new champions.

” From the moment I got there, there was a mass of friendly advice on parking, signing on, changing, the route, everything. The pre race instructions, clear and not a bit condescending. Every junction and hazard was brilliantly marshalled, potholes clearly marked and mentioned, and the post race atmosphere friendly, informal but professional. If ever there was a template on how to run a race on open roads, this was it.”

The weather gods saved the best weather for the last event of the season! Bright sunshine but with a strong westerly wind. The sunshine and wind also produced the most attacking race of the series. 32 riders took the start line with the 8 EFGH riders having a half lap lead. It looked like the older group would take the first prime but they were caught on the line with Paul Spicely taking the prize. Within a lap a strong group comprising Spicely, Craig Nicholls, Ross Courtnell, Matt Holmes, and Paul Miller had moved clear of the bunch. Courtnell unfortunately punctured but rejoined after taking 2 laps out to change a tube. At the second prime taken by Matt Holmes the bunch was beginning to split up with Matt Steel, Mark Cain, Murat Ozdenya, David Farrow, Aaron Green and Paul Davies moving clear. However they made little impression on the leading group. With 3 laps to go the leaders were starting to break up with Nicholls and Holmes attempting to stay clear but they were all together at the bell as the leaders lapped the bunch. On the line Nicholls took the win from Courtnell and Holmes. The chasing group was led home by Matt Steel and the bunch by Marco Coppola. Although Courtnell was originally given 2^nd after further deliberations the judges agreed that he be relegated to last of the leading group due to him taking laps out due to a mechanical.

Overall, provisionally, in Cat A Aaron Green wins with 8 points from Lukasz Galka and Craig Nicholls both on 4; in Cat B Matt Holmes wins with 14 points from Ross Courtnell on 8, Matt Steel on 5 and Duncan Rimmer on 4; Paul Spicely takes Cat C with 10 points from Marco Coppolo and Murat Ozdenya both on 8 points; in Cat D Keith Walker wins with 11 points from David Farrow on 10 and Jason Fitchew, and Paul Turner on 4; in Cat E  Stephen Piper wins with 18 points from Martin Meades with 8 and Duncan Thomas with 4; Steven Wade-Jones wins Cat F with a maximum 20 points from Trevor Gannon with 8 points and Reg Smith with Cat H with 4 points. The full overall result will be published once double-checked.
