Despite pretty much every other sporting event in the UK being cancelled – the weekend’s 661 Forest of Dean Mini-DH went on. Apparently a bit of snow and ice wasn’t going to stop Chris and the Naked Racing crew from putting on another great day of racing.
Jess Stone won it for the girls… interestingly racing as ‘Worcester Uni Cycling Team’ and Will Soffe nailed it for the chaps.
Top 5 men’s results:

Awesome news for us – new Wideopen team rider Ellie Maxfield placed second to Jess and was fastest non-elite female. It was Ellie’s first race for Wideopen and first race back after her nightmare crash at Llangollen earlier this year that landed her with a broken leg. Great return to form girl – nice work!
Big thanks to Chris Roberts and team for another awesome event. Keep ‘em up! The next one is Sunday 23rd January 2011. Full details here www.minidownhill.com
