What a day!!
Fantastic buzz around the IMBRC camp today possibly started off by such good results in the youth cats, Dave U10 2nd, Adam 3rd and Ryan 4th in U12, Johnny 3rd in U14, Anto 2nd in U16 missed out on 1st due to a directional error (Next time Anto) Mickey 5/6th also in U16. Its great to see all these lads giving it socks every time, Young David absolutely busted a gut in his race started mid pack and gained places each lap, Brilliant. Big red face on him for about a half hour afterwards, lol.
The U12 race was another cracker, two young lads from epic got first and second but Adam and Ryan were close behind for the whole race, I can see this cat as one to watch in future.
Johnny in the wrong cat (Should be U12) played a stormer, held his own in third for the whole race and finished with plenty left in the tank. Big Bro Anto is another one to watch for this year, he was highly disappointed with the minor error on the last stretch of single track after leading all the way and then to lose first position, But not to worry plenty more podiums to be taken this year by him I suspect.
Great racing in the senior cat too, Paul came in first out of all of us........ Shocker... lol just kidding. I was close behind him for best part of it but he took off on the last section or two of single track and that was that. Laco and leo were also on our heels for the whole race i think at the end there was 3 minutes between us all, great stuff. Corney and Aidan came in soon after too. I think Ian got a top 15 in Baggy shorts aswell so all in all a great day out, minus the god dam hail stones that poured from the sky at times during the day, other than that the weather was fantastic.
Also want to say thanks to Leo and Cora for bringing most of the younger lads down to race in the van, they had sandwiches, tea and god knows what else packed in there. Great job.
