What a fantastic year of riding and racing in 2024! We look forward to this success continuing in 2025! HUGE THANKS to our donors; our sponsors Jewsons, Kustom Bikes, Walker Blair Building and Blue Anchor Bay Garage; our volunteers and supporters, without which this would not be possible.
Jacob Coles, on the podium, came 2nd in the under 12s race at the Southern Enduro, Tiverton. Fantastic effort Jacob! Callum pictured riding above also had success and came 16th in the under 18s race. Callum had a great day attending his first mountain bike race. Brilliant effort Callum! After a morning of practice runs they hit the race stages in the afternoon. Both riders had a a great day racing. Thank you to all of our sponsors and a special shout out to Jewsons for assisting our racers with race entry fees via the Rider Development Fund!
