Tue 15th May Go-Ride Grand Prix Round 1 Astley & Tyldesley

Astley & Tyldesley welcomed 24 young riders, including 5 newcomers, to compete in Round 1 of the A&T Go-Ride Grand Prix series, on Tuesday.

This year's series will be run with three teams contesting four rounds, with six riders in a race in a 15 heats match, to encourage team riding and learning how to race in a bunch. A&T are not just developing riders in this entry level series, but also developing young volunteer officials, with Emily Burgess and Max Evans serving as managers of the Astley Hurricanes and Tyldesley Typhoons teams respectively, with John White captain of the Gin Pit Storm team.

Tyldesley Typhoons ran out winners of the opening round, with Aiden Green top scoring and Oscar Belt racing unbeaten in his three races in the youngest category. Gin Pit Storm were runners-up, with their captain John White racing to a 24 points maximum. Tom Morrissey put in a great showing for Astley Hurricanes, losing only to John White in heat 10, as the team finished in 3rd place.
