Redgrave Cyclocross - youth races
At the youth race at Redgrave on Saturday there was a clear win for Cameron, a determined performance from Ollie, and an impressive 11th place from Bryn (who unleashed a finishing sprint to rival Mark Cavendish).
In the U12 race James was happy to finish tenth, but slightly disappointed that Diss & District CC's otherwise excellent refeshments didn't include any chocolate cake.
Perhaps one of the youth riders will add a race report of their own here later.

Comments
The grass was also bumpy and hard to ride at times.
I started off at a fast pace, riding away from the main field. I stayed in front all the way and managed to win my very first race! (Mainly due to a few riders that were racing elsewhere or could not make it !!) And also by photo evidence above of sucking in more air with the tongue manoeuvre.!
Bryn also had a good ride coming in 11th... Oli gave it his best and came in at 27th .
James in the u12 also had good ride... (And well Done Anna)
A good showing all round for CCA with Phil also representing in the vets but DNF due to a saddle failure...
Looking forward to the next one with other team mates Jon , Theo and Daniel.
nice photos too mark
Just to add Stevie had a week off, doing her bit commissairing. I came 37th in the senior event (16th Elite Vet).
Mark.
Very impressive efforts over the weekend, well done CCA riders/officials/pit crews/drivers.
Mark.
Cameron, Bryn, Ollie & James are centre stage, but keep your eyes peeled and you'll also spot Mark W, Stevie, Stuart, Fiona and Anna in the supporting cast...
Super syle from the youth!
