Ae Forest Dirt Crit - D & G Race series, Round 3.
17 youngsters braved torrential rain to take part in round 3 of the D & G race Series held at Ae Forest in the format of a dirt crit.
The event was organised by new club Ae7 Trail Demons and they put on an excellent promotion in their first attempt.
Despite the weather some excellent racing took place. In the under 8 boys Kyle Colchester from Drumlanrig/Riks Bike Shed Root Rats maintained his 100% record to win in fine style. In the under 8 girls, Lara Grey from the Stepping Stanes club took over the overall lead in the series with her second win out of 3.
The under 10 boys is proving the most popular with consistent high numbers taking part, despite being pushed hard by Archie Nicholson and Dugald McGregor, Fergus Hiddleston from the Root Rats held on to win and increase his lead in the overall standings. Stepping Stanes star Polly Henderson made it 3 wins out of 3 in the under 10 girls race.
The numbers were slightly lower for the older categories. Coming out on top were, Adam Burgoyne, Stepping Stanes (Under 12 boys), Lizzie McCreadie, Stepping Stanes (under 12 girls), Ryan Hill, Root Rats (under 14 boys) and Jordan Crawford, Stepping Stanes (under 16 boys).
Well done to Ae7 Trail demons for putting on the event and to all the riders for turning up in such horrible weather.
