Aoraki Mountain Biking championship
TBHS - November 25, 2015
The Downhill race was a long punishing course more suited to enduro
bikes rather than Downhill. Shaun Barclay came 2nd in
the U19, and his little brother Liam Barclay took out 2nd
place in the U15 Downhill, with Bryn Rogers finishing 3rd and Ollie Love 4th.
Jefferson went on to ride the South Island Course in Forrester Park in Dunedin to finish 5th in the U15 Cross Country.
Term Four has seen some exiting races for the MTB club. Two enduro races in Dunedin over October/November gave the boys a taste of racing that was different to the norm, with fast downhill sections interspersed with untimed rolling transitions. Shaun Barclay won the U21 section. To finish the year our junior team of Liam Barclay, Cadell Tomkinson and Sam Ritchie won their age group of the local six hour endurance cross country race held in the Scenic Reserve.
