Midland Series Round 3 & Midland Champs

Race 2

The second race of the day included all the senior men's categories, and the majority of entries. David Fletcher won the Elite men's race after a close battle with Lee Williams, also taking the Championship title. The first lap brought a surprise as Expert racer George Budd came flying through the arena ahead of the elite field, despite having started two minutes behind. It seems the entire Expert field had missed a section of course by mistake, but since everyone in the category had done the same thing, the race went on regardless.

In the Veteran race, Patterson Training client Michael Powell had a great day, taking the win from Keith Sperry by 45 seconds.
