FoelDHRiders Easter Bonanza


Last Sunday was the traditional FoelDHRiders Easter race at Foel Gasnach, North Wales. Was an amazing day with dusty trails, good BBQ and chilled out runs. Winners got Easter Eggs, Fenwicks bike cleaner, gift vouchers for On-Track in Prestatyn and some cheap fizz courtesy of Wideopen.

Top spots went to: Wayne "Sunshine" Appleby (Best Cat), Sean "Young Gun" Davies(Rest Cat) and John Whatsyoursurname? (hardtail)..also Andy Williamson for Best Crash.

Good times had by all - big thanks to everyone at the FoelDHRiders club for putting on a great day, everyone who drove the uplifts, cooked food, sorted the timing, donated prizes or just turned up and had fun. Big thanks also to Dave Liddy and the Forestry for providing such a great spot for DH in North Wales.
Grass roots racing at its absolute bloody finest... Full report and pictures in Wideopen issue#2.
Check out www.foeldhriders.co.uk to get your Foel on. It's 45 minutes from Chester and 15 minutes from Ruthin. There's 3 tracks, top to bottom uplifts and all the roots you could ever want. Get up there and support the cause.
