THE MANCHESTER REGIONAL TRACK LEAGUE PREMIER DIVISION
MANCHESTER REGIONAL TRACK LEAGUE.
The first race, a 40 lap scratch race was won by Mike Cubison having
his first race of the present league.
Next we had the 50 lap Points race and a splendid ride from Ian Stott
from Blackburn CTC who achieved an extra 10 points by lapping the field.
This gave him a total of 18 points. The other placings were very close
Ben Swift 9 pts Adrian Thorp 7 pts and Julian Mortel 7 pts.
The evenings Devil takes the Hindmost was won by the experienced Hugh
Cameron.
Hugh rode in an exemplary way, sitting in a front group whilst others
scrambled at the back, then with a couple of laps to go he went away
leaving the remainder of the field looking at one another trying to
decide who should chase him down.
The last race, the 10 mile scratch, won in a very close finish by Mike
Cubison from Ben Swift.
