Reading Time: < 1 minute Well, it was certainly a cool day, with a harsh chilling wind to start, and dry-ish conditions, albeit heavy going for the riders. The biggest entertainment, and certainly the most technical part of the course, which favoured the faster and fitter, was a small and unassuming little chicane, up a gentle slope. By the time […]

It’s Hot for Cross!
Reading Time: 4 minutes It’s only the 8th of September, and we’re already complete for round 1 and 2 of the North West Cyclocross Association League, with an excellent turn out by Weaver Valley! Having had my CX debut last year in freezing conditions in a snow blizzard, 2019 round 1 and 2 have been positively barmy in comparison […]
First-class-cyclo-cross!
Reading Time: 4 minutes On Sunday 25th September 2016 I undertook one of my main challenges for the year, the 3 Peaks Cyclocross in Yorkshire. This is a unique and popular annual event and it is now in its 54th edition, it’s well known in the cyclocross circles and is oversubscribed with entries limited to 650 places and usually […]
WVCC Cyclo Cross 2015
Reading Time: < 1 minute The NWCCA Round 7 event was held as per usual, but a little wetter and a little muddier, which made for an increasingly challenging course as the day progressed! Nevertheless a very successful day, and the persistent and intermittent showers did little to put the masses from participating in all classes. Results are below, and […]

The event continues […]

Cyclo Cross Sat 19 Oct Greenbank
Reading Time: < 1 minute Another successful event due to the fantastic help and support of so many WVCC members. The change from Sunday to Saturday seemed to go down well – club members can still enjoy their Sunday Run (although the weather might not be as good – thank goodness we got packed up before the thunderstorm!). Full results and a report […]
Cyclo Cross 21 October
Reading Time: 2 minutes A glorious calm, sunny day made the event all the more enjoyable. The addition of a butty and burger van along with proper car parking helped with the smooth running of the event. 105 riders contested the main race around an extended, more challenging course at the usual venue of Greenbank, Northwich. Paul Bethell (Team Elite) led […]
Club Cyclo Cross Sun 6 Nov
Reading Time: 2 minutes A record field of 144 riders made it a cyclo cross to remember on a perfct autumn day, firm on the Greenbank playing field but much heavier and slippery in the woods. Tom Armstrong – Herbalife/Wheelbase was close to the head of affairs from the gun with stiff competition early in the race from Giles […]
