Ipswich BMX Club staged the fourth round of its Go Ride
Summer Series at its Landseer park track on Tuesday evening.
Although the track had been battered by the recent wet
weather, riders were greeted by dry, bright conditions with very little wind.
Formula 3 the class for the youngest, least experienced riders.
Despite this they all seemed to make easy work of the rough Landseer Park
track. Leon Harrison continues to dominate the class & winning each of his
four races. Mason S Wright finished second in each of his leaving Sebastian
Harrison to round off the podium in third.
Formula 2 provided the crowd with the most competitive
racing of the evening, with three riders in contention for the win up until the
last moto. Alfie Cole rode his new bike into third place. Ahead of him were Abi
Pike, second & Oliver Wright, first who rode that bit more consistently to
ensure the win.
The final race of the evening was Formula 1. Shaun Andrews
had to sit out due to mechanical failure along with Lee Matthews who was
suffering from a bout of lethargy. Andrew
Ashford was to finish third behind Alex Pike whose first straights were the
fastest of the night. It was Ben Peters
who ironed out the bumps in the track better than the rest & won each of
the four motos to take the gold medal.
Many thanks to all those who helped organize the race. Round
five of the six round series is on Tuesday 18th June. Registration
closes at 6.45pm.
Coaching takes place next Tuesday evening & will be
split into two classes. Please get to the
track by 6.30pm to register your interest. Don’t forget our scheduled track
work this Sat/Sun 6/7th June. If you can spare a little time please
bring a spade (& maybe a wheel barrow) & help to resurface the track
ahead of our regional race.
