Lewis heads the field
Round 2 of GWR
Team’s Winter, floodlit Cyclo cross series had another record entry of
48 riders signing on for a surprisingly fast and dry race that was
held in windy conditions at Supermarine Rugby ground. With seven events
of the ten race series counting for the overall prize of a holiday to
Joyriders in Spain, riders were keen to get a strong result in the 2nd
round. So it was all guns blazing into the first woodland section. With
round 1 winner Matt Denby not making the trip south this week, it was
left to 2nd place Dan Lewis and 3rd placed Paul Lloyd to try to make
headway at the top of the table and assume the overall lead. Leading the
field into the first of the woodland sections was Lewis, leading the
field for two laps. Lloyd remained in contact and took the lead on lap
three, only to relinquish it on lap 6 to Lewis who went on to take the
victory in the 13 lap race.
