It is fitting that we end our review of WMCCL category winners for 2024 with Julie Rowntree, who won our V60-64 Female category after some great racing with Debbie Hodson – who was second – and Carolyn Jennings – who was third. All three typify what the WMCCL is all about – the joy and […]
Our 2024 V45-49 winner, Dave Morris of the Grity Race Team, spent the season chasing Andy Wearing in the V40-49 race. He never quite managed to catch him (see below), but he was nearly always second or third, and that was enough for him to finish well clear of Colin Miller (who was second) and […]
Darren Atkins of Team Enable MI Racing was WMCCL Champion and WM Regional Champion in the V55-59 category. He also finished third overall in the V50+ standings. He was never out of the top three in that race and won it three times. Tim Barnes was second V55-59 and Leon Field third. Darren was also […]
Rob Burns of Malvern Cycle Sport retained his Senior title in WMCCL 2024. That’s four Senior category wins in a row since we resumed the League after Covid, and five wins in total, which is a fantastic achievement. As always, Rob had to contend with some very strong U23 riders, but he won in Round […]
Under-16 Male (or Youth A if you prefer) was another very competitive category in WMCCL 2024. The winner, with four wins – including the Regional Championship – was Oliver Larner of Lichfield City CC. But second-placed Arthur Oliver and third-placed Ben Whitehouse also had wins. Here’s Ollie’s summary. “I am very happy with my results […]
Genny Billington of Bromsgrove Olympique was our Senior Female Champion for 2024. She finished well clear of Melissa Baker, who was second, and Laura Rogers third. Genny was also second overall in the combined Women’s standings behind Ceris Styler. “This year, I went into the season wanting to take the league more seriously and found […]
A newcomer to the region, Crispin Doyle of Magspeed Racing, was able to disrupt the Team Enable MI Racing domination of our V50+ races. After a couple of second placings, he got into his stride and finished the season with five wins to pip Nick Whitley by two points in the V50-54 category. John Darroch […]
The last of our four winners from Solihull CC is Sam Brownsword. He dominated the Junior Male category in WMCCL 2024 – winning eight races, including the Regional Championship. Sam was joined on the Junior podium by Aidan Walters of Stafford RC in second place and Sam’s teammate Patrick Neely in third place. Sam is […]
The second of our 2024 winners from Matlock CC is Chris Watts, who won the V65-69 Male category. He beat the previous year’s top-two: Gary Rowing-Parker (into second place) and Paul Freeman (into third). Chris loved the atmosphere and camaraderie of the League and – although we are ruthlessly friends during races – it’s the […]
