RACE REPORT ALERT! Thomas Skinner shares his account of the first two COTR races of the season below.Follow island cyclocross racing results at www.crossontherock.com
“Cyclocross racing is back on in 2021, after a year that saw the Cross on the Rock series cancelled due to the Covid pandemic. It feels great to reunite with friends and racing enemies (these people are sometimes closer than friends), and it's great to feel the sense of community and camaraderie that this series creates.
The first race in the series was held here in our backyard, at Cumberland Village Park. The highlight for many was seeing how the whole community came out to help with course set-up and tear-down, and how everything seemed to come together so smoothly, with such a positive and enthusiastic feel.
Racing again on cross bikes was a bit of a shock to the system. I only re-learned how to corner on 33mm tires about half way into the race, which was about the time that I started to lose some of the punch in my legs after accelerating out of the corners for 30 minutes. The @trailbicycles team had Sam Schum, Niko Schum, Hudson Webster, Malcom Lehton, Kip Manktelow, Eryn Freeman, Brailyn Webster, Annabelle Whitehead, Carlin Christensen, James Prattley, Dan Lehton, Sarah Hauser, and Tom Skinner all having strong races in their respective categories.
Two weeks later, Qualicum hosted the second round of the COTR series, with a course that forced riders to bring out their mountain bike skills. There was a long sand section, multiple strings of rooty singletrack, and a few steep chutes to navigate.
Sam Schum, Talia MacPhail-McGrady, and Kip Manktelow all finished on the podium once again, with Nico Schum, Annabelle Whitehead, Brailyn Webster, Kip Manktelow, Hudson Webster, Ian Lehton, Joa MacPhail-McGrady, Malcom Lehton, Dan Lehton, Chuck Ashton, and Gavin MacPhail all having strong races. Eryn Freeman and Tom Skinner were just off the podium in the Open Women and Open Men's category, but they promised for next time that they will live up to the expectations set for them by our junior riders.
Thanks Trail Bicycles and our sponsors for helping build this community and for your support! “
