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 […]
We’ve talked about a few of our category winners with ‘near perfect’ records: here’s a rider that went one better. Ceris Styler of Rotor Race Team won all eleven rounds of the WMCCL – including the West Midlands Regional Championships. And that was not just winning her category (V40-44), that was winning the combined Women’s […]
Our Under-10 Male winner for 2024: Lucas Shephard of Stratford CC, was another young rider with a near perfect record. He won nine races – with just one ‘off day’ in Round 2 at Shrewsbury. Calum McAusland won that day, and finished on the podium in seven other races to claim second place in the […]
Andy Wearing of Mike Vaughan Cycles topped the V40-49 standings and was our V40-44 champion for 2024. Andy won six races and was on the podium in three others, which put well ahead of Chris Mapp (second) and Scott Palmer (third) in this sub-category. Here are Andy’s reflections on a very successful season. “Fast and […]
Another young rider with a near perfect record this year was Zosia Latuszynska of Solihull CC. She won our Under-12 Female category with 9 wins from 10 races.

Shauna has sent us this summary. “I’ve really enjoyed this year’s Cyclocross season – although I don’t get a lot of time […]
Charlotte Furniss of Newport Shropshire CC won our Under-10 Female category by just one point. Chloe Coton from Stafford RC took an early lead (with four straight wins), but Charlotte got stronger during the season and ended up beating Chloe 6:5 in terms of race wins. Persephone Emuss was always just behind them in third […]
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 Kirk of Matlock CC is our V50-54 Female winner for 2024. She beat Eleanor Betts (second) and Sarah Kelman (third). Helen is relatively new to cyclocross, but she’s already competing at the head of the pack. As well as winning this category, she finished an incredible fourth overall in the Womens’ standings. Helen tells […]
