Hunlty Championship Race Results

Here are the results for last weekend’s rollerski races. The normal championships was run on Saturday, with a couple of extra events on Sunday for fun.

Despite a very wet start Huntly managed to produce fine weather for Saturday’s racing. The turn out was good with a crop of new faces from the Kids club and also some new visitors from the Army.

The races were split into Senior/Veterans (10 laps), Under 18/U16 (7 laps), Under 14 /U12 5 laps and Novice 3 laps of the outer loop.

Ben Wooley took the top position in the Seniors Race, with Hector Cowie narrowly pipping Sandy Wishart into Second Place.

The U18/16 classification saw U16 Duncan Gibb beat U18 Gregor Young by a mere 7 seconds. Beth Maclean took a lead of 28 seconds over Lynn Gray.
