For the third year in a row we saw Bright hold the MTBA National Championships’ and again we saw some familiar names on top of the podium. The day was dry and started off, as per usual, with practice sessions for the various categories before moving into racing. A good crowd formed on the hill and the commentators did their best to wind everyone up! We have a range of photos to show some of the highlights of the day, enjoy:

Riders had plenty of time between practice and racing to recover.

With practice done it was time for racing. The best place to see the results is via the MTBA website, it was interesting to see the battle in Under 19s – the attention was on Jackson Frew andA�Remy Morton, two of the more established names in the field. In the end it was the slightly less well known rider, Josh Clarke who took the win, with Jackson and Remy second and third respectively.

So like that we had a junior men’s champ we also crowned Sian A’hern as the junior female winner. Moving onto the senior men’s and it was much the same as the past years with Troy Brosnan taking the win. It was a similar story in the women’s category with Tracy HAannah agian taking the win, points for consistency to these two!

As we saw last year, Troy Brosnan and Tracey Hannah were the winners again.
