Test Valley Tour Cool Challenge Finish Times
by Paul Howard, 28 Oct 13.
The Cool Challenge returned to Andover for it's annual visit and riders were luckily treated to sun and the odd light shower. Careful trail plotting had made the most of the local bridleways and byways with the best trails in Collingbourne Woods serving up a good dose of twisty fun. Finish times are provisionally listed below. Andover local Adam Vaughan won the prize draw for a Saddle Skedaddle mountain biking weekend, well done. That's it for 2013, we'll be back for the Hot MTB Challenge on 8 June 2014.

Autumn Classic 1 - Results
by Paul Howard, 13 Oct 13. Results [ 1» ]
A hearty "Well Done!" to all who came and raced in the constant drizzle at Frith Hill. Early racers were rewarded with a slightly moist track, but large puddles and rivers of flowing water soon changed course conditions to require a shortened lap. But all agreed the course was still 100% rideable and there were many smiling gritty faces...

TrailTrax Hambledon - Results
by Paul Howard, 01 Sep 13. Results [ 1» ]
The Merry Harriers at Hambledon played fine hosts to the large turnout of mtb'ers keen to navigate the local Surrey Hills. Sid Hardy cunningly laid out the checkpoints to achieve the fine balance between half a dozen clearances within the time and plenty of nearlies but not quites! With just one round remaining at Hannington on the 29th September the Series Points are all to play for.
