Hoghton Tower Cyclocross Race Report

Saturday saw the opening race of the 2017 NWCCA league at Hoghton Tower, and it did not disappoint with 400 riders across all the age categories taking part. The course was challenging made all the trickier by the occasional downpour.

We couldn't make use of the lawns in front of the house this year due to the conditions, but the alternative courses worked well and we appreciated everyone's efforts to keep off.

Cross is coming and Red Rose is Ready!

Red Rose Olympic are hosting round 1 of the North West Cyclocross Association league at Hoghton Tower on Saturday. To be prepared the club has organised cyclocross coaching sessions in Moor Park on Saturday mornings. Lots of skills have been covered including starts, off cambers, cornering, mounts and dismounts and bunny hops.

The sessions are open to both members and non-members and have been well attended with all age groups from under 8 to vets represented.
