North Down Grand Prix
Club Race – Kirkistown – 2nd May
As ever the club opened it’s racing program with a fantastic night’s entertainment on the Kirkistown Race Track. Record numbers turned up – 85 senior riders including four ladies and twelve children.
The race was won by Gary Cranston with Matty Blayney 2nd. These two broke away from the scratch group on lap 3 or so, caught and passed the handicapped groups. Ray Brownfield and Noel Boyce hitched a ride for a while, Noel went back to the bunch but Ray after being distanced held on for 3rd. The bunch sprint went to Sam Craig of Curran Racing from Richard McCullough, Ross Blayney and Paul Ferguson.
During the course of the race there was unfortunately an accident resulting in some riders coming off. Best wishes and a speedy recovery to Mark Hedley, Mark Brooks, Stephen Cousins and Louise Tognieiri.
The children’s race was won in fine style by Jack Anderson from Ben McDowell and Ben Webb.
Many thanks to our helpers, without whom the events could not be run. Eric, Ruth, Kathleen, Christine, Angela and Red Adair.
