The heavens opened…making sure the burgers and bikes stay dry

The day started miserably and finish miserably but between some great racing in Sir Thomas & Lady Dixon Park, a good 200 entries made sure we had some entertainment, especially the kid’s races who as always attracts big crowds.

A full youth program was run in the morning and results can be found on http://www.ulstercyclocross.com/Results/Phoenix_CX_Race_2019_Results.htm courtesy of Martin Grimley (Chief Comm) and the Phoenix CC time judges
