Photos, Video & Results: Mountain Bike Race

January 7, 2018

[Updated with photos] Seventy-nine mountain bikers along with their families and other spectators braved the cold, windy conditions today [Jan 7] at Admiralty House Park to be a part of the fourth race of the 2017-2018 Furniture Walk Mountain Bike Race Series presented by Gubinelli Mendoza Wines, Arch Insurance & Becks Beer.

The BBA had an official standing by to support proceedings, validate results and ensure memberships for 2018 were paid.

The A, B and Veteran classes were able to enjoy a new course section heading down to the beach which was very technical. A few riders had mild spills over the sloping ruts, drop-offs and roots.

In Veterans Class, Hans Hirschi continued his dominance beating second place David Bryne by more than two minutes. Andrew Hern secured third place.

In the Male B class, it was Nick Narraway beating out Blake Camara for first with Alex Miller close on Blake’s heels for third.

Female novice saw Caitlin Conyers lead out very strong against Jennifer Wilson and runner Zina Jones. Unfortunately a first lap flat forced her too far back to recover and Jennifer eventually beat Zina for line honours with Caitlin coming third.

The next race will be at Ferry Reach Park on January 21st.
