Mid Devon Cycling Club headed to Coxleigh Barton in Barnstaple for the 1 round of the South West series.
With a new race day format for the SWCX league it gives a better opportunity for riders to develop and hone their skills throughout the season, now with two separate adult races, we see riders age 6 to 76 racing. The venue has been used for many years with a well-developed course design to start the season hosted by North Devon Velo who are were established through an equal merger between North Devon Wheelers and Taw Velo to promote cycling in North Devon.
Mid Devon had 16% of the entrees of the event and turning them in too many podiums with wins for super Vet Robin Delve, first year under 14’s Lauren Fox and first-time cross rider under 16’s Henry Cadwallader.
