Robbi Knapton had to settle for eighth in the male 14 group, followed by Sam Hann in fifth in male 15-years round.

Ben Blake battled for third place, despite an arm injury in male age 16 group.

In the Male 25+ round, Ian Wheeler took second followed by a first in the cruiser 25-29 year group, rounding the day off nicely for the birthday boy. Christ Hibbert had to settle for seventh in the cruiser 40+ group.

Shannon Blake took fifth in the female 10-12 year group, with a fifth for Bethan Hallett, racing the boys in the male 13 group.

Mum, Paula also finished with a fifth in the ladies 25 and over category, while Elly Skinner bucked the trend for the ladies, with a first in the female 16 and over group.
