Alan McRae reports.....
Gifting presents to others was in short supply as Harrison Fielding Poole Wheelers battered the opposition at the fourth Raymond Brown Track League Meeting at Bournemouth’s new 250m outdoor track. Harrison’s one dimensional tactic of constant attack proved too much for the others in all the A Group Events with the evening’s finale 40 lap Points Race proving particularly brutal. Gaining a lap before half distance with team-mate Andy Buddle, Harrison rounded off a clean sweep as it was left to Roland Tilley Ridebike and Leon Marshall Rutraining to pick up the scraps with timely efforts as the field broke up under the pressure.
The B Group saw the welcome return to the track of John Marriner Bournemouth Jubilee Wheelers, a former World Masters Champion, and Dave Carter Bournemouth Arrow who showed his experience to pick up his first win since his 34th Nomads days in the B Group 12 lap Scratch. Wins also for Will Stevens Bournemouth Arrow in the B Group Sprint Challenge and Elimination Race put him in pole position for elevation to the A Group next week. Group B is proving to be fertile territory, less deep in the results than previous weeks are riders such as Jason Falconer Bournemouth Arrow who although completely new to track racing is clearly flourishing in the environment and proof of what can be achieved.
The organiser’s sympathies went to Jake Thomas Bristol Cycling Dev Squad who remains trapped in Youth events by regulations when he would clearly benefit most racing in the B Group. The other Youth events were carved up by the Poole Wheelers’ Pick Clan getting the better of fledgling Dightons and Hodkyns, none of whom lacked in vociferous support from previous generations of the Clans.
