661 Mini Downhill Race




Last race of the year and the 1st of the short course winter races at the Forest of Dean. The "ski run" was used, pretty apt considering the conditions of late! A very successful race for the Red Mist team with Dan Haines taking the win in his first race after going up to the Masters catergory and i'm sure he'll be a podium regular next season.

Our other Dan, Dan Ingram, has also moved up an age group taking the step into juniors. Always a tough catergory and 14th place was very respectable.

 Vets was a big field of 20+ entrants. Niall and myself were beaten into 2nd and 3rd respectively by the "young" Si Paton but you can't grumble about taking 2 podium spots!
A good fun race, well run and well supported by the sponsors.


Thanks to Tina Ingram for the pics.
