Round 3 of the Llangollen and District Championship kicked off in fine weather in Hafod-y-garreg Farm near Glyn Ceiriog, deep in the heart of lomax country. Nevertheless all classes got a taste of the wet stuff with following stream sections and rocks test their ability.
The beginner route riders had smiles on their faces all day even more so because of the stream sections it must be a kids and water thing!!. In 3
rd place and his 1
st podium for the club was Oliver Awkwright on 21 marks lost, 2
nd was Ewan Edwards on 12, and taking the win on 8 marks lost was Rhys Bagnall.
The intermediate route saw deviations from the white and shared one of the expert sections, 3
rd on 15 was Dylan Hayes, 2
nd an ever improving Harvey Davis losing out on first place with just one mistake on 10 marks lost, leaving 1
st for Steffan Jones on 9.
The expert route had sections of their own to further test their ability and challenge them as the riders are all National competitors. 3
rd on 36 was Jenson Jones who took it to most cleans, 2
nd just taking the place on 20 most cleans was Charlie Crossland, 1
st on 26 was Lewis Hurdsman after a disastrous section 3 rolled his sleeves up to narrow the gap on Crossland and Jones. Rider of the day went to Leo Clough his first ride with the club saw him improve on every section, this was sponsored by JSC Construction Huddersfield.
