Its good to see the girls out racing in the youth category's and showing the boys that girls can send it of jumps to. Charlotte Kay takeing the win today in the 15-16 field and the fastest time of the day for the girls.
The Mini downhill used the same upper section at the adult race the day before which meant for the brave few the the big send over the double drop was in play. there was a few riders happy to take it on and Ollie Carne racing in the under 12's field, showed in his first run its not just the older guys able to send it over this big gap.
During the break between practice and race runs the rain finally came. Lets be honest it wouldn't be racing in the north of england with out some rain, fortunately there was plenty of time for some re walking of the track to scope out the new conditions .
Noah Killeen one of the riders riding in both races this weekend finishing 6th today in the 13-14 boys. a really top effort considering the big fall he took the day before at the bottom of the drop section.
