Cool, I was quite disappointed last year with the lack of results because I actually rode quite well!!

I didn't ride but apparently they promised results.

Thank you to the more than 1000 participants who took part in this years Beaulieu MTB Challenge. There is no better sence of satisfaction in organising an event like this when you receive thanks and see hundreds of happy faces along the route.

 

Congratulations to Sean Henderson and Ian Martin for placing 1st and 2nd in the 45km. You guys were flying and nearly caught us off guard as you came out of Gina's farm towards the end of the race.

 

Congratulations, also to Andrew Hill and Ivan Smith for placing 1st and second in the 25km

 

Well done to the Beaulieu Prep team for taking the interschools parent and pupils title.

 

The Beaulieu MTB Challenge is a fun event but the course was absolutely designed with the racing snakes in mind.

 

I have to add, it was a nightmare trying to reconcile the results. Many people rode out of their entered race categories or rode with incorrect numbers.

 

If you entered the 45km and rode the 25km, add 10 minutes to your time and another 10 minutes if you chickened out completely and rode the 15km. The placings have as a result also been thrown out but the times posted for the winners are correct and you can gauge by this where you would have come. We will definitely have a title sponsor lined up for next year which means a far more advanced timing system.
