Round 3 of the Wessex Cyclocross League 2025/26 took place at Southampton Sports Centre, and this one was epic! 🚴♂️
I lined up for the U12s youth race and had one of my best starts yet — opening up a surprise gap early on. The course was long and technical, with a tough off-camber, loads of corners, and a dragging climb that tested the legs.
After the start, I found myself in a head-to-head with my two teammates from Hillingdon Slipstreamers, and it turned into a flat-out battle to the finish line. 💥

[Music] Hi guys, welcome back to another video. Today we’re at Southampton for round three of the West Clue. I’m really excited for today’s race. [Music] [Music] [Music] Thomas, Thomas. Warming up on a hill next to the track. [Music] My chain rocked when I was moving to this dark line. [Music] Keep going, go. Amazing start. Although I didn’t get clipped straight away, still got that first power up the hill. [Music] Good rhythm. Keep going. Well done, Freddy. Well done, Fletch. Stay on his wheel now. Stay on his wheel. [Music] Well done. [Music] Third place, but I don’t think I can hang on for much longer. Come on up, buddy. [Music] Come on, flesh. Get to him. Go on, flesh. Keep going. [Music] Me and the other two Hillington riders are in a group and started riding together. Well done. Keep him. Go, go, go. [Music] Come on then, boys. Keep going. Well done. Keep with the flex. [Music] Come on, boys. You can’t shake any way. It’s a race. Well done, Fletch. Well done, Fletch. Keep him. Come on, backwards. Well done, Fletch. You’re doing great job. [Music] Well done, Fletch. [Music] [Music] Heat. Heat. [Music] Don’t f keep with them if you can. [Music] Go to the line. Go. It was all or nothing. Go, go, go. Give me everything. [Music] Brilliant race. Um, I thought it was quite a techy course that made it quite good for me and I came fourth. Well done to Max and Edward and also to everyone that raced today. I’m racing next week and click here for another one of my videos. Thanks for watching.
