Platt Fields in Manchester played host to Rounds 3 and 4 of the 2023 National BMX Series, with Eddie Moore and Freia Challis both securing back-to-back wins over the weekend.
Round 3
In the men’s Superclass category, it was Eddie Moore (Crucial BMX) who put on a dominant display, sweeping all four moto’s and taking a very well-deserved win. Kyle Evans (C&K Contractors) pushed Moore right to the line to take second place, with Cal Strickland (Staystrong) taking yet another podium spot this season to finish third.
The women’s Championship class saw Freia Challis (Absolute BMX) yet again in a class of her own with another clean sweep across all four moto’s to secure the win, with the 15-year-old having already won the opening two rounds of the series. Betsy Bax (Staystrong) narrowly took second place just ahead of Elsa Rendall-Todd (DC Cycles) in third by one point due to racing in grand prix mode. The junior men’s category saw carnage in the first berm with five out of the eight riders going down, which left just Ben Fitzsimmons and Charlie Roy battling it out up front. However, Fitzsimmons would just about manage to hold off a late charge from Roy to win the race with Adam Gilbert (Thrill Factory UK) rounding of the podium in third place. Superclass
