It’s taken a few days for the points to be totted up but after nine rounds of the Wessex League things aren’t looking too shabby for the Wheelbase.co.uk/Cannondale duo currently placed 1st and 6th overall in the season long battle.

Sunday December 6th plays host to the South of England Championships at Southampton Sports Centre. Two weeks ago the warm up race at the same venue ended in a heap of broken bikes and bodies as the muddy conditions inflicted havoc for all. It’s what cyclocross is all about. Bike racing as you’ve never seen it!

Don’t miss what’s dubbed to be the race of the season, on a National level course, against the best cross riders in the region.

Race start 2.15pm (whatever the weather).

Let's hope it's nasty. So, who said we're soft down south?
