Preston Track Championships at DISC, Saturday 3rd of October
Racing got under way at 6:10 pm. Three scratching’s made for a late start.
The Championship was run using Omnium Points.
The Four events were-
- 500 metre time trial
- 2000 metre time trial
- Flying 200 metres
- 32 lap scratch race.
The rider who finished the nights racing with the least number of points was the winner. Example; 1st – 1 point, 5th – 5 points ECT.
Some personal best times were achieved by most of the riders.
Christian, Craig, Tony and Peter. All did personal best times in the 500 metre TT and the flying 200 metres.
Michael (Mick) Burke showed how good he is at 2000 metre riding and won this event easily. Tony McNulty showed he is improving all the time with a personal best to finish second behind Mick.
Christian Stewart was understandably the best of the riders winning three of the four events. Overall a great night was had by all with hotly contested riding.
A special thanks to David Morgan and Nathan Fraser (both from the Brunswick CC) for doing the timing and the lap counting. Thanks to Hugh Schulz for his relentless efforts running the Championships.
The Club Treasurer, Leo Coles, helped fine tune some of the riders positions and gave them some skills coaching as well.
