25th April saw Jack Bradley race in typical Darley Moor conditions, cool, blustery and heavy showers!

Typical Darley Moor weather welcomed the riders tithe second round of races promoted by Ashfield CC. A fast pace race right from the gun saw the riders reach in excess of 40mph down the first straight with the wind behind them. The bunch stayed tight, with jack hoping to follow on from his excellent result at Mallory Park in a similar fashion rarely far from the front 6 riders.

A torrential downpour of rain and hail with 4 laps to go saw the race cut short, just as Jack was caught out by the wind and a sudden acceleration of the bunch, leaving him adrift of the main bunch. He tried valiantly to close the gap, but with laps running out he finished just short of the bunch. A creditable 12th behind the main bunch sprint.

Last Saturday Jack Bradley raced Lichfield CCC’s Curborough Sprint Series round 2 on a dry and sunny day with a blustery wind blowing up the home staight.

He came in 9th, in the main bunch sprint.

Dad, Ian Bradley reports: “Round 2 of the Curborough Series found much different conditions to round 1. As in the previous round, a fast start by eventual winner Ben Hardwick soon had the field strung out.The leading two soon broke clear leaving a large bunch to chase. A small group of 5 riders repeatedly tried to break away, but on each attempt the were pulled back by the bunch, with Jack working hard on the front to close the gap. But they continued to push and eventually broke away at half distance. Jack followed up a fine ride at Mallory n Tuesday, by taking the bunch sprint by half a wheel to finish 9th.”

Results – Jack & Ian Matlock Hilly TT

Friday 10th April saw both Jack and Ian Bradley attempt their first time trial. On Matlock CC’s hilly course from Cromford through Crich.

A lovely sunny spring evening on what turned out to be a very hilly course saw Jack take 2nd and Ian 4th.

A small field due to the Easter Holidays were soon under way from Cromford station, with all riders soon visible together on the climb through Lea Village. Jack had made up the two minutes on his dad and passed him as they climbed past the tramway museum. Being the only youth in a veteran field Jack came in 2nd with fantastic time of 20:48, behind the evergreen Chris Green who set a course record on the night. Ian came in 4th some 3 mins behind at 23:33, and very glad of the all downhill ride back to the start!
