Cycling: Fat Tire Massive Lagoon Park Results
The latest round of the One Communications MTB race series presented by Fat Tire Massive was held this weekend at Lagoon Park.
A spokesperson said, “Our return to Lagoon Park was a repeat of last year’s course which include Bermuda’s only quadruple downhill Berm section! While Saturday was partly cloudy with hardly any breeze for setup and course practice, Sunday was blustery with SW winds gusting to 35mph. Happily, strategic setup of the sign in tent and BUZZ Coffee and refreshment table allowed us to enjoy the day despite the wind. Approximately 110 racers including the 8 and under non timed group took on the fast paced flowing course.
“In Open 60, the absence of Kevin Smith, Dominique Mayo and Robin Horsefield left a bit of a gap in the racing field. On the Start, Mikle Terceira set the pace but soon enough a breakaway formed of Conor White and Jackson Langley. Chequan Richardson and Alan Potts led the chase pack for some time but at the end, Conor narrowly bested Jackson for the win, with Chequan holding off Potts for third.
“In the Novice class, there were tight battles in both the male and female Races. Kareem Johnson ultimately bested Mark Richardson, securing his first win of the season. Katrina Carr and Arlene McGuiness stayed close to one another for the whole race. Carr got the win with only 4 seconds on Arlene.
“We are tremendously excited to introduce a brand-new venue for next race. Through careful coordination with the Parks Department and huge support from local contractors, FTM committee and the St David’s Cricket Club, we present to you, the Little Head Park Course.”
