Report (Snowdon Sports & Clare Crabtree)

Former national champion, Paul Oldham (Hope Factory Racing), underlined his form for the coming cross season when he took a comfortable victory in the Senior and Junior race at the second round of the Yorkshire Points Series at Hambleton Leisure Centre in Northallerton on Sunday. The 36-year-old from Colne in Lancashire crossed the line more than two minutes ahead of his nearest rival, Orange Monkey youngster Billy Harding. Harding took the John Stevenson Memorial Trophy for the leading Yorkshire competitor.

Nick Barnes (Zepnat RT) had been the early leader on lap one, but it wasn’t long before Oldham had hit the front and began demolishing much of the field, taking around 20 seconds per lap out of his closest rivals. Behind, a group of four mounted a chase including Dieter Droger (Scott UK), Barnes, Rob Watson and Harding. With three laps to go Watson dropped off the pace slightly by around 15 seconds, and although he looked to have done enough for fifth spot his rear mech broke on the final lap and he was forced to retire. While Harding won a close sprint for second spot from Barnes and Droger, there was also a good battle for fifth which Dan Storey (RST Racing) won from Rob Thackray (Paul Milnes Bradford Olympic) after a race-long ding dong.

In the race for veterans and women, Ian Taylor won his second successive race in the series, winning by nearly a minute from former British Champion Chris Young (Pedalsport CC). At the start of the race a group of five – Young, Taylor, Noel Clough, Matt Denby and Andy Peace – developed, but soon Taylor pushed into the lead and took some 20 seconds out of his rivals in a lap before heading off into the distance towards eventual victory. The four chasers each tried in turn to break clear, but without success, until on the last lap Chris Young managed to break away for second, whilst Denby tangled with a back marker on last lap which ended his hopes. Nicola Butler won the women’s race. Junior Hannah Saville was the early leader, but Butler soon took overtook her and led from then on, whilst Saville finished as best junior woman.

The Youths opened proceedings on a sunny morning at the Yorkshire Points Series most northerly venue and it was Alfie Moses who made all the running, notching up a second successive win, ahead of Rob Scott and Euan Cameron, who was also the first Under-14 finisher. Lucy Horrocks took the girls’ race and was also the leading female Under-14 competitor.

The Under-12 race saw an outstanding win for Ava Oxley, who showed all her male rivals no respect at all, to win convincingly. Marcus Hiley was second and first boy home. The Under-10s and Under8s rode a combined race, that Toby Kershaw won by an impressive margin. Astrid Hiley took the under-10 girls race win, whilst Ollie Middleton and Freya Ward were the two under-8 winners.
