"The creator of Gorrick"
- Jon Lucas finally got the right
side of the tape to race in the single
lap Berks On Bikes Handicap race

Classic course, classic weather, classic racing! What a way to end the season eh? A healthy turnout of over 350 riders tackled a surprisingly different course to the usual layout, something our course designers have done well at this year. But the Corkscrew remained a challenge catching the unwary over the roots. Many riders arrived expecting a mudfest but conditions were very good enabling those with speedy legs to really pull out all the stops on the fast fireroads and flowing singletrack.

The Fun and Open classes were selected to take part in a prize draw for personal fitness and training sessions from our Autumn race sponsor Motion Fitness, the lucky winners chosen at random are
Fun: Stuart Inchley, Stuart Tidbury, Rupert Turton
Open: Robin Kamiya, Georgina Suto, Michael Lancaster.
(If you weren't able to collect your prize please get in touch.)

All the Gorrick team would like to say a big thank you for supporting us through 2005 and making our races some of the best attended and most popular in the country. Our sponsors have been invaluable in providing prizes and many other facilities, so make sure you pay them a visit for your next purchase. Looking ahead to next year all the race dates and venues are now published on the calendar. Very shortly we'll be launching a brand spanking new website with a whole host of new features. Have a good winter and see you all again in January for the Spring Series.
