The Club had another successful day on Sunday at Round 2 of the KWT Maxxis Sunshine Series.  Held at the popular Karingal Scout Camp, Mt Cotton - hosted by Brisbane South MTB Club.  The track was in great form - dry and fast but still challenging with its fair share of climbs. 

We had a fantastic turnout of 23 members competing on the day, in all categories except three (Elite Women; Vet Men & U13 Girls)  

Congratulation to the Podium winners:

U13 Boys  Jules Fuller-Fontaine 3rd

U15 Boys  Nick Pedler 2nd and Josh Hooten 3rd

U17 Women  Madeleine Moore 1st

U19 Men  Alex Hockey 2nd

Super Master Men  John Travers 3rd

Sport B Women  Alison Forbes 3rd

Expert B Men  Mark Passier 1st and Michael Illing 2nd

Elite Men  Aiden Lefmann 1st

Respectable efforts were put in by everyone else too - good to see John Williams racing again after injury, and daughter Megan (U15) racing in Sport B Women put in a great effort finishing 7th out of a field of 14.

Ben Forbes in his first year of U19, stepped up to race Elite for the first time - finishing 6th in a field of 20 

Well the sun came out and the wind died down, for a perfect day out at Mt Crosby - with just a few damp spots on the track to make it interesting!  107 riders battled it out for the State Champion medals.

Thanks to everyone who came out to make it a successful day.

"What a day! It was great to see so many people come out and race for the State Championship title. The weather was against us during the week but we put some hard yards in just to keep the race on. I hope it was worth it for you riders. Thanks to everyone who came out to race or just support, without you there would not be a race.

Huge thanks has to go to Kenmore Cycle Club for putting on the event, Alex Hockey, Peter Ruhle, Peter Janssen, Alison Forbes, John Forbes and Declan Kilkenny for doing the hard work to get the race going. Both on the day and behind the scenes. Thanks also needs to go to the volunteers on the day, track marshals and BBQ cooks.

Also, to our sponsors :  Kenmore Cycles, The Local Bean Cafe, Erdinger Alkoholfrei. Please help out these guys, they helped us out. Lend a hand where you can.

Pictures: I will stick them up, Conor Kilkenny took over 200 pics on the day, hopefully you find one of yourself!

Hopefully I've thanked everyone, with out them we can't have events. Look out for some more Kenmore Cycle Club events over summer!"

Declan Kilkenny.
