National champions power away in round three

Round 3 of the NZCT National Mountain Bike Series Cross Country competition saw recently crowned national champion Clinton Avery take a massive 7.10 minute win over nearest rider Stuart Houltham (PNP Cycling Club).

Dunedin’s national champion Anja McDonald also rode strongly to finish 2 mins 06 ahead of series leader Aunt Betty’s Fiona MacDermid (Palmerston North), with Kaytee Boyd of Auckland in third. “It’s a fantastic track, one I know quite well, felt quite good out there and didn’t have any crashes” McDonald, riding for Santa Cruz, said following her win.

Commonwealth Games representative Sonia Hill (nee Foote) made her return to the National Series this season with a solid 6th placing on local soil. Rotorua has again showed its immense support for mountain biking in New Zealand providing the biggest field for the season so far with over 210 riders and including 80 on the day entries. Riders were greeted with sunshine and blue skies for the first time this season and took the opportunity to post some fast times.

The 7.8km course at the world famous Redwoods, one of the more extensive trial networks in New Zealand, incorporated classic mountain bike trials including some of the very first trials purpose built in New Zealand. Over $50,000 a year is spent annually on maintaining and upgrading the tracks, with the help of the Rotorua Mountain Bike Club.

Well known local mountain bike family the Avery’s had a great day out with Mum Mary Anne (Sport Master Women), and children Clinton (Elite Women) and Monique (Under 19 Women) taking first place in their categories, and Patrick (Under 17 Men) finishing in third.
