Donna Fox takes the win at Round 1 of the Ladies National Championship

The first round of the Ladies & Girls Trials Championship got underway at Seymours Arena this weekend, the top class being won by Donna Fox for the loss of just 20 marks.

We'll have a report up soon. In the meantime the club would just like to thank all of the observers that stood out in the cold and blustery wind and the odd downpour that hammered across the Arena all day. Thank you to everyone else who helped in any way, too many to mention but we have an amazing team and everyone plays a part to make all of our events a great success. Finally, thanks to all of the Ladies/Girls and their families that turned out today, travelling from all parts of the country, we hope you had a safe journey home. Results below, there are more pictures up on the Gallery page.

Gazza was with us, so you will find more pictures on his website, click the Sliders button below.

Thank you to the Horse & Harrow for letting us use the pub for the Start/Finish. As always our gratitude to the landowners that support the club letting us run our National events across your land. Thank you to everyone else, too many to mention who help in any way, its a real team effort and everyone plays a part to make our events the success that they are.

The 1st round of the S3 Championship this coming weekend

The first round of the S3 Championship being run by North Berks MCC, The Wallace Cup. Starts from the Horse and Harrow Pub in West Hagbourne, near Didcot. First rider away at 9:31, with a single lap of 38 challenging sections, set out by clerk of the course Stuart Robinson and his loyal gang of section plotters.

The first group of sections are set on the old Railway Bank, followed by six at the Moors and then onto the famous Seymours Arena where we have eight demanding sections, there is ample parking, a catering van and toilet. From there riders will head onto a relatively new group of sections, The Lynch, then across the road to Lollingdon Hill, after those sections it's onto Aston Pit and Air Raid Shelter, then back to Bucknell’s for the sting in the tale of three tricky sections – a note to spectators no parking on the busy A417 verges, please use the extra parking field located by the Horse and Harrow Pub. The trial is then finished at Strange's Gate for the final section of the day. Food and drinks available from the Horse and Harrow, please support the pub by having a pint and a chat about your day.

We would also like to mention the spectacular entry we've had this year, we have eight girls riding: Emma Bristow, Local girl, Alicia Robinson, riding her first ever S3 National on the road, Jess Bown, Katie Sunter, Victoria Payne, Louise Alford, Katie Nash and Meg Savage

We also have eight riders from across the water – Four from Ireland: Sean Doyle, Billy O’Toole, Johny Carroll and Brian McLoughlin. Chris Stay from the Isle of Wight. Then Robin Arnold, Damian Owen and Joe Yeardsley from the Isle of Man.

A great turnout, with 44 riders on the Over 40’s class and over 50 riders tackling the S3 Expert Course. This should be a great start to the S3 National Championship, supported by John Shirt.

We look forward to seeing you all on Sunday.
