Round 4 of the British National Cyclocross series saw us head south to the coast, and take on the muddy course of Torbay Velopark. As always the racing at UCI cyclocross level was fast and furious!
The course was a brute with plenty of running sections, due to the thick mud. Having practiced the course with Nick Craig I had my lines dialled and was ready to fully commit to this race and that I did!
This was definitely my best ever performance on a bike. Although I didn’t make the 80% rule, I have a lot to take away from this race and I’m extremely motivated for the rest of the season.

Nice one mate. Great feeling when it comes together and you feel like you’ve done yourself justice. Just booked myself accommodation in Falkirk…
That mud was brutal!
Good form and concentration is paying off. Way to go.
The "wellies." Bwa ha ha!! You kill me George.
Great ride! Even toward the end, your feet were moving… Well done GC! (That your folks still race is brilliant!)

Look at how fast the leaders are running! I suppose if you're going to be racing right through the winter you need the running speed so must train for it.
30 second intervals across the footy field with a weighted bike on your shoulder wearing a big pair of German army boots several times a week through August would do it 😂
Well done Georgio, top riding. PLEASE get your old man into shape and video it. Im around his age and we seem to be under represented a little on YouTube.
nice one GC, good performance in that sticky mud, those front guys can really run with the bikes on their shoulders! good to see the mud back, shame about the 80% but again, good performance mate
Your training paying off Giorgio🎉
Great to meet you and chat about the course and ideas for the series. And yes get Del Boy racing!
8th actual senior! – Just ignore the pesky U23's and vets!
Awesome racing Giorgio! You're doing so much for the CX scene, great to see!
Well done Goirgio 👏
Great ride that looked tough in the mud sections you got to get del boy racing hope you do the nationals if the rocket lets you
Soon, it will be you getting interviewed by Cam Mason for CX tips 💪 Go on George 😂
Killing it !!! 🔨
Great ride George. You were really unlucky with the 80% rule. By my calculations the Comms would have been applying 6:07 as the cut off and at the end of lap 6 you were 6:08 behind Thomas. Frustratingly for you, it would have taken you about 20 seconds to get to the finish line from where you were pulled and when you were pulled Thomas was over a minute behind you. IMO, the issue is that ideally the cut off time should be based on the leader's average lap time, not just their 1st lap, as this doesn't take into account lap times getting progresively slower on very heavy courses.
Another vote from me for 'Del Boy Returns to Racing'. 😉
Great racing George – hope you can make it to Falkirk, I'll come and cheer you on
Really good to see you not only race well Giorgio, but also be proud of yourself. Well done!!
Falkirk!? Yesssssss!!!!! Looking forward to seeing you again mate!
