Korcing Day Out! Nestled on the edge of the Lincolnshire Wolds, Market Rasen is normally associated with racing of the equine variety. Racing at the weekend though saw horse power of a different kind. LEC' s third race in their debut season once again saw records broken as 148 riders were attracted to the venue near Willingham village. Going back to the format seen in their first event, the club ran two 90 minute races instead of the straight 3 hour race seen at Korc off road centre a month ago. Well over 200 man hours were used in the design and marking out of the 5.5 mile course which saw riders tacking several tight and narrow wooded sections, mixed in with faster areas over the Lincolnshire farmlands. The club certainly made it different to the "Lincolnshire Erzberg" in April !!
Winners in each class were as follows... Ladies...Tara Hollingsworth The clubs next race is on June 11th. Full spec and contact details are Pictures are by Terri Saunders as usual. The two pictures are of experts

The
weather didn't really play a part and add to the riders woes this time. It
wasn't too hot like the April race nor a monsoon like the March one. The recent
dry spell made for pretty perfect, and very grippy conditions.
