Under-10 Female Winner

Charlotte Furniss of Newport Shropshire CC won our Under-10 Female category by just one point.

Persephone Emuss was always just behind them in third […]

Under-23 Male Winner

Sulli Berry of Rotor Race Team tells us below that this season has been tough for him. Well, you wouldn’t know it from his results. Not only did he win our U23 Male category, he also topped the combined standings for Junior, Senior and V40 Men. He was first or second in all but one […]

Helen tells […]

Under-12 Male Winner

The second of the winners from Solihull CC who we will talk about today is Gregory Latuszynski, who stormed the Under-12 Male category. Gregory has impressed many with his speed and riding skills.

Under-6 Female Winner

Our last post was about one of our oldest riders. Now for one of our youngest. And they have two things in common: they both ride for Wolverhampton Wheelers, and they both won their age category in the WMCCL. Esme Wilson was our Under-6 Female winner. Esme won all but one of the eight races […]

V70+ Male Winner

Eleven guys in their 70s competed in WMCCL 2024. The leader among them was Phil Metcalfe of Wolverhampton Wheelers. He finished well ahead of Pete Ward (second) and Ian Forrester (third).
