Race 3 Bishopwood

Team Chevin. Bang/ Olufsen need “Help” on Bishopwood

It was Team Chevin's night on Bishopwood, and well deserved, which saw 3 of their riders in the Top Ten. With a win for Marc Help (Team Chevin. Bang/Olufsen), his first ever win in the 4 years the series has been run, he also had a 3rd and 2nd in the two primes on offer, which shot him to the top of the overall leader board.

He obviously worked hard all night. An early break on the road saw Josh Arnold ( University of York )and Tim Jackson ( Clifton cc ) go clear for three and a half laps of the six lap circuit, their lead going over 2 minutes. But it was never going to last, with Yorkshire Terrier, Marc Help and team mates Chris Hope and Mike Gill chasing , with the support of group one, who all worked hard. Marc Help takes Race 3

Juvenile, Lewis Barry ( Sportcity Velo )and his Mum, Carol Barry (GS Surosa ) were present in this group, with over 60 vet Malcolm Robinson, all well organised, going through and off, with Arnold and Jackson surviving to the prime, and taking the points with Marc Help out sprinting the rest to take 3rd. Prime 2 went to Dave Goodall ( Airedale Olympic )  with Marc Help 2nd and Martin Tallontire ( Otley cc ) 3rd.

By lap 5 with one to go, it looked in the bag for group one, as the peleton was not making enough progress to bring it together. The sprint for the line started a long way out and Marc Help going clear to win with Tim Howcroft ( Otley cc ) 2nd, Dave Goodall ( Airedale)  3rd. With Marc Help’s team mates Mike Gill 6th and the improving Chris Hope in 8th.
Juvenile, Lewis Barry looks to have the pedigree of his Mum and Dad, finishing in 9th. At only 14 years old, this makes him the top Juvenile in the series after 3 races.
