Tiverton BMX Club Round 5 Bristol 14th June 2009

Round 5 - Bristol 14th June 2009

With over 250 race entries from around the South

West, Tiverton BMX Club were in for a busy day of racing as they travelled

to Bristol on a scorching Sunday.

In novice class, Tyler Westcott came in 4th for 6 and under after

racing in continuous moto rounds due to technical errors, I bet he was

tired!

Danny Nichols and Reece Cutler represented Tiverton in 6 and under with

Reece pedalling in at 3rd

Little TJ Baldwin flew the flag for Tiverton in the Male 8s, keeping

up with the Burnham boys coming in at 4th.

Elliot Norrish put in a good day of racing in the B final for Tiverton in

the Male 11s. Bethan Hallett competed with the boys in the Male 14s taking 7th

in the A finals, brother Connor took 4th in the Male 16s as Sam

Hann took the 2nd.

TJ Baldwin swapped his Cruiser for his 20" at Bristol racing with fellow

club member Ben Blake in the Male 17+ who made the B Final, both tallying up

the points for Tiverton. In the Male 25+, Derek Cutler came in 4th

with Ian Wheeler taking home 4th after a fall in the B Finals.

Shannon Blake rode well in the Female 10-12, finishing 5th in the

A Finals, with some tough competition from Burnham. Paula Hallett took 3rd

in the Ladies 20+, sitting at 3rd mid season.

With no TJ in cruisers, it was up to Jason Nichols to win it for Tiverton,

and he didn’t do bad coming in 6th in the A finals, leaving him

at 4th in the mid-season rankings, doing well for his comeback

year!

With work underway on the Tiverton track, the next regional will now be at

Bideford on 5th July 2009.
