The second round of the Onza sponsored National Cup took place at Addingham Moorside on Sunday 16th May. The sections, which had taken two days to set, were daunting, not least because a very high wind had settled in for the day, threatening to blow riders off the rocks and all the way down the hill to Silsden! British Cycling’s Roger Wilbraham was on hand to present the awards and said that he was impressed by the level of riding and what the Biketrial Federation were doing.
Elite
Elite 26” was a closely contested battle, with winner James Hyland finishing just three points ahead of Dave Kerr (14) and Andrew Walker finishing off the podium on 27 points. Ben Savage was away in Scotland with his display team and Atomz riders Ben Slinger and Danny Butler were in Monaco demoing at the Formula 1 Grand Prix for Pussy energy drinks. Elite 20” saw 13 year old Jack Carthy take the win with 17 points on his card, ahead of Rob Poyser (21) and Tom Rankin (33). Never mind the future, Jack is one to watch NOW!
