The first race was held at bedgebury June 13th. It was a small 3km circuit thought some very twisty single track. A few riders from our club were there such as Henry & Lee Sayers. On this warm day I took my first ever race win to put me in contention for the championship.
Next came Fowlmead county park near deal and on a Thursday evening they held there summer sizzler race. Unfortunately I suffered a puncher on lap one which put me in 94 place (last) but I carried on to finish an amazing 17th.
Then it was back to Bedgebury forest on July 18th. It was another hot and sunny one and I won again to keep my hopes for the trophy alive.
Ok so now for the fourth and final race back all the way down to Betteshanger on a Thursday evening to round of the series. I lined up with some top names such as Gary record and Mark field. I had to do well as the idea is that you can drop your lowest result so only three of the four races count but as I had that 17th spot to shake of there was no rest for me.
So I raced my heart out in SFACC colours but overcooked it on a dusty downhill and cut my knee. I carried on and finished 2nd only 29 seconds of the leader a guy who later told me is going for expert status. So to sum up I still waiting for official confirmation but I believe I'm Kent’s first MTB champion a title which makes me very happy.
See you tomorrow where we can hopefully chatr about it (if I can keep up with Kent's newest champ!
