Report Overview
The final round of the 2008/09 National Trophy for Cyclo-Cross was fought out Markeaton Park (Derby) on Sunday with many of the national champions crowned the week before in Bradford present aiming to add more trophies to their name.

The course for the event, based around some hills in the park, was perhaps the toughest yet with the sticky mud right round the circuit and no fast sections, meaning there was no let up for the riders and the slippery surface was always ready to trip up the riders throwing caution to the wind.

Certainly, the results threw up some shocks and perhaps the course had something to do with that. During the day, the pits were kept extremely busy and as one rider explained, within 500 metres of getting a new bike, it was clogged up again. Some bikes were so clogged up, that riders had to stop mid circuit and remove the mud that stopped their wheels from turning or gears from working before continuing on their race. One such rider was young Tom Moses but he still came back at the rest and won his event.

There were many highlights during the day and they included seeing the new champions crowned last week in Bradford racing in Derby. Like Vets 40 Plus champion Noel Clough who won his race in a photo finish with series winner Geoff Giddings, Jody Crawforth who took his champions skinsuit racing for the first time and saw off the foreign opposition and won the series on countback and junior Ruby Miller who looked great as she again competed with riders in the senior ranks wearing her champions kit.

It was a wonderful day to finish the series, sunny and a little windy but not as cold as it has been. Now the focus of many riders turns to the World Cyclo-Cross Championships and British Cycling will have some one there to bring back reports and photos of the big event.

Rider Talk
After each of the events in Derby, British Cycling spoke to a few of the riders about their races:

Sam Lowe: “I was actually hoping it would be a dry race so I could do as well as I did last week at the Nationals, and I was shocked with the win today. I went over to Belgium over Christmas and did a few Super Prestige races and that is what I think has helped bring me on so much. This was more hard going than Bradford where everyone was in a group but today you had to work by yourself to get away.”

“I had my fair share of crashes and slipped off a few times on the steps. I made five bike changes as well because a clean bike was getting clogged up after about 500 metres of racing. I didn’t want to risk ripping my rear mech off or something and decided to do the bike changes.”

Joshua Papworth: “This week was definitely a lot muddier. There was barely a pedal stroke without the wheel spinning. I’m really chuffed with the result having won the National Champs and now the National Series. Because of the mud, I was running the pressures in my tyres a lot lower”.

“At the start, I was running mine too hard and couldn’t get any grip at the start. Once I sorted that out, I managed to make my way back up through the grid. I was looking where all the other contenders were out there and thinking of the series and checking I had enough distance between myself and them.”

Noel Clough: “The form is still there. Phil shot off like he normally does, and I think because I am going so well at the moment, I can adapt to any course. This type of course doesn’t normally suit me. With half a lap to go, Phil fell off and I thought, right, sprint, and I went as hard as I could and caught Geoff on the last bit here (final 300 hundred metres).”

On what went wrong over  the winter in his challenge for the series though, Noel explained “I had bad form after the Three Peaks when I over trained and was tired for the next two rounds and lost the overall there. After that I started to get better and better as the season went on and it went right for me at the nationals.”

One what was the key on this treacherous course at Derby, Noel replied “consistency. Trying not to come off as there were a lot of hard slippery corners and to keep it steady, don’t go to hard and stay on your bike. The champions jersey gave me extra motivation. On the last lap I thought I’ll let Geoff have this and then I thought, no, I can’t do that and so I went as hard as I could and got him”.

Above: Over 40 race and champion Noel Clough (centre)  came and won the race in style coming from behind on the last lap. Credit to Phil Roach who set the pace and swapped the lead with several riders including series winner, Geoff Giddings.

Geoff Giddings: “I could see Noel coming up to me on that final lap. I kept changing bikes because of the mud. I am pleased with the way the series went where I was consistent. I trained a lot during the summer and did my best to hold the form through out the winter by keeping the training short and intervals. The sprint was quite fun with Noel. We were side by side out of that final corner and it was all about who got  the drive out of that final corner where we both had to sit down to sprint.”

Ian Wright: “It was very different to Bradford out there. That was the best I could do  on the day. I enjoyed it. Roy was gone from the start and then Peter  Wilkin gave me a right good old race. He ran away from me on the climbs and fair play to Peter. All the riders in this category are very competitive and hats off to them all.”

It was his first series win and adds to the Mountain Bike series in the summer. Ian now has a rest before getting ready for the mountain bike season and also some on the road like the Crit champs after getting some advice from his training partner Dan Fleeman. To finish, Ian said “hats off to all the organisers of the National Series events. Brilliant. They have done a really good job this year and put in a lot of hard work.”

Sue Clarke: “When I went around this morning, it was a little wetter and there were bits of grass you could weave in and out of to get a bit of grip but I decided to do a lap after the vets race, and it had totally changed. It had dried out and got really cloggy and the mud was sticking to the bike more.”

“It was more like a slog than a fast race. It makes up a little for my disappointment last week as its nice to go out on a win. I haven’t touched my bike this week after having had the flu and have been going to and from the doctors and then got hit by  a car on Friday. It’s been my week from hell. I made a late call yesterday to come today because I had been feeling right rough and we just came down this morning and I’m glad I did”.

“The start was important today but not as important as it would have been in a fast race. I haven’t been starting very quickly but I knew today would be a test of strength and endurance which is kind of where I excel. Putting your head down, gritting your teeth and getting stuck in so I wasn’t too worried I was a little bit back and as I started to make big in roads into the leaders, I just stuck my head down and enjoyed it.”

“There were sections where it was quicker to run than ride but when I got a good lead, I was trying to challenge myself to ride them to help improve my skills.”

The Series Winner for Women then explained “I don’t think the series means anything to anyone anymore because I wasn’t even considered for the worlds. Saying that, if there were certain selectors who were only at the nationals then they would have seen me doing a poor ride. So from the nationals that is fair enough. But I think this National Trophy should count towards something as I was a little disheartened at not being selected.”

“I had made other plans anyway and am off to a mountain bike camp in Lanzarote so I would have had to give up the place anyway. I think in the future, if I do want to aim for the Worlds, then I think I need to do some World Cup races to get a gridding  and take it really seriously. I am not going to the worlds just to ride around – I’d want to do well.”


Above: Tom Moses despite dropping back at one stage, came back to win the race.

Tom Moses: “I had a good first half lap and then the bike got a bit clogged up so I had to stop and run a bit and un clog it and I lost a few places.  I was back down to about eighth and decided to work my way back there and felt stronger and stronger as the race went on. I’m looking forward to the worlds now as I have good form.”

Jody Crawforth: “I felt a bit tired this week so I rested up. I wasn’t expecting to win today. I was feeling really sluggish riding around but that was probably more the course than me! I made sure I had done a long warm up and made sure I got a good start because there is no point in sitting on anybodies wheel in these conditions.”

“I went as hard as I could on the first lap and tested myself. I was changing bikes every lap. There were a couple of corners on the last few laps that were getting so boggy,   I had to get off and run them. It would be good fun in the dry!”

“It felt good wearing the jersey out there. I have been waiting a while to wear this. I’m really happy to win the series as well. Hatrick! I wanted to do well in the series and the first couple of races I wasn’t going as well as I expected but then I started to get into it. It was close coming into it today and me and Paul were tied on points at the last round.”

“The Worlds is going to be great. I did some racing in Belgium over Christmas and you have so many people crowding the course cheering you on, it makes you want to go really hard. I want to do more of them next year wearing the jersey!”

Paul Oldham: “Today I just never got into it. It took me until three laps to go. To lose the series by zero points is really disappointing. I usually love conditions like this but I don’t know what went wrong. I had plenty of power -- I just couldn’t get going at the start. I felt horrible. Overall, in terms of British riders, I haven’t been off the podium so I can’t complain really. Jody has had a brilliant end to the year. You win some, lose some.”    


Above: A bad day for the man in yellow Paul Oldham who only had to finish third to keep the jersey -- he was fourth.

Stuart Wearmouth: “I got on with the course really well. I found I was taking different lines to a few lads and riding back onto the wheels through the corners so I think that helped a lot rather than purely pedalling all the time. It definitely suited me! I have been training really hard lately, and maybe over done it in a couple of races and perhaps just got it right today.”

“I enjoyed the course too, it was really slidy and really nice. I had bike changes every lap and thank my dad. I just went as hard as I could from the start without going into the red too much and killing myself. The only thing I didn’t realise I was getting myself in between Jody and Paul for the series which I wasn’t aware of and I am sure he will understand.”


Above: Stuart Wearmouth rode a really strong race and is pictured 'flying' up the muddy steps.

And Finally. British Cycling would like to thank everyone on the National Series for their help through out with results and help too at the course from the organisers, judges and commissaires and not to forget, the riders who have provided us all with an exciting series of races. The number of riders competing and the interest in the reports on this website where the viewing figures are as high or higher than major road races and other disciplines, show how popular Cyclo-Cross is getting year on year.

Roll on next series! -- Larry Hickmott
