Frank Campbell and I turned up for the races.
Frank was in E grade and I was informed that i was now in D grade as I won E grade at the tennis centre two weeks ago.
Report on E grade.
Frank was doing turns at the front and avoided a nasty fall from a rider further back.
On the sprint to the finish Frank got past the third place rider and crossed the line 2nd just on the back wheel of the first placed rider.
Report on D grade
I got away slow as my cleat had clogged up with mud and I was at the back of the bunch going into the first downhill corner.
After two laps at the back I lost touch with the back of the bunch going up hill and couldn't get back in touch.(no team mates to help me)
I then decided to go aroung with E grade.I avoided a crash by an inexperienced E grade rider who crashed heavily going down hill.

Reply: I feel like some riders may brake when you don't expect it going down hill such as the E grade rider who crashed.
It was the first time I have raced there and I was being cautious going around the fast downhill corners.
