Sun Finally Shines for Rd 3 Ulster XC at Ballykelly

The day started off wet and miserable but still the riders came in droves to Ballykelly Forest where Caldwell Cycles were promoting Round 3 of the Ulster Cross Country League. The club had designed a new and challenging course which was more challenging following the rain. However the sun did eventually appear and the day brightened and warmed. Caldwell Cycles had put much effort into ensuring that everyone enjoyed their experience in the North West and congratulations are due to all those who helped out to provide a great day's racing. The results of all the races can be viewed below but the full results and all the lap times can be found at www.ulsterxc.com

The Under 6s race is just for fun. It is an introduction to off-road racing.

There are no winners, no podium, no medals. It is all about the achievement of starting and finishing. If your child can complete the course with ease and is ready for the next challenge please have them try the Under 8’s race instead. There is no lower age limit on the Under 8s race.
