Export resultLoxley Lollop on Sun 18th Feb 2001
11 startersNear perfect conditions for this the first race of the Loxley Rough Running series, and once again local knowledge proved invaluable as first Tom sneaked past Chris Ledger near Cliffe House Farm, then beat Mike Robinson to the finish after being a minute behind at Loxley trig. I also managed to beat Tony Simpson to the finish from behind at the trig after his round about route down.
The Loxley camper van was also a great success the hot tea at the finish was just perfect. Many thanks to its crew of Jill Gunnee and the kids for giving up their Sunday to support single handedly. Apologies must go to Kev Saville for abandoning him after he fell behind, we needed a second support car.
There will be a second chance to run this race next week as people who couldn't make today but actually still wish to be in with a chance of winning the Brugarolas trophy (yes there actually are some) can still log a time. However their race positions will follow on from today's official race.
Hope everyone enjoyed it; I am off to the pub now to celebrate what's left of my birthday.
