Money Raised for Charity
Money raised at Bringewood on the 27th/28th March is £44.46 and highest so far. So money raised so far is £75.56 which is better than expected from the first two races of this year. Next race will be at Hopton Castle to raise that little bit extra. So the charity bucket will also be there, but you can also donate online at the JustGiving site which is just before the video slot. Many thanks for those have donated so far.

Race Report Rd1 Bringewood
When arriving at Bringewood it was raining as usual but soon cleared up. At Bringewood itself it was as muddy as usual at the top, riders where slipping and sliding everywhere, few had mere misses with a few trees on the way down and some had a gentle hug with them. And all this was on the practice day Saturday. The track was clayish from two thirds of the way down from the top where the rain had made a little contact with the track, otherwise the track was spot on. Come race day it stepped up a gear with more madness thrown in for good luck with times that where either slightly faster on there second timed runs by 3 seconds or faster by the same amount. The weather held for a few hours until a small amount of drizzle came in which was only for less than 5 minutes each time and times it by 4 over a hor and a half. Overall the race and track was out of this world and very good organising by the Pearces's crew, well done.

Race Report Part 2
After changing a small amount of the track it was as fast or even faster than expexted, with still a few sticky patches around. During the day the track thawed out and it was back to what it was on Practice day. The race runs had to be reduced to one race run as there was not enough time to do two. So practice runs was extended to 1.00pm then racing started at 1.30pm. From then on it was nothing less than high octane without the fuel for the rest of the day. All in all it was an awsome day to be their.

Race Report for Caersws Cup Rd1
Saturday Morning was cold but the sun was out which was a lovely bonus. Got to the race track it was busy and with other riders, families and spectators arriving and checking the course.
The hill was like a Tornado had hit it with just a few trees standing, otherwise the track was spot on. It was fast and the furious on track with riders crashing etc all day.
Come race day it was frozen like a tundra, there had to have a few track changes due to safety.....
for more info on the race keep watching.
