Just six seconds separated Gold from Silver in a hotly contested Shropshire Championship 25 presented by North Shropshire Wheelers, the 16th and final round of the Friction Hydraulics Series. Twice cancelled due to unexpected traffic lights on the Berriew course; the Championship was instead transferred to the popular D25/23T Tern Hill – Shawbirch course, and […]

It was medals galore following Round 15 of the Friction Hydraulics Series as six further were sealed in the penultimate round; the West Cheshire TTCA 25 – and the destination of the Top Club Award was settled a round early for the first ever time.

A brand new course, a brand new promotion, and a brace of brand new course records made the Aerologic RT 15, Round 14 of the Friction Hydraulics Series one to remember as the first medals of the Series were settled.

The longest event on the SCCA calendar saw riders battle through the teeth of a 23mph headwind down the A53, wearing riders down and making things take on the characteristics of a war of attrition – with Tomos Hales retaining The Jack Parker 100 Mile Trophy in Round 8 of The Friction Hydraulics Series: The […]
