Back again for the final round of series I and with it all to play for after testing gravity in round #7 Tom pulled out all of the stops and took 3rd place on the day, combined with the primes that sealed his series win for the C race.  Next series Tom will be racing the B race.

Our other competitor at the race was Kelsey, also racing in the C race and taking home 7th place on the day.

Well done all who raced in the series.  Kulis Crit Series II starts on the 30th June 2016

Kulis Crit Series I race #7 - 16th June 2016

Race 7 was looking perfect with regards to the weather, unfortunately for Tom he decided to test gravity and the laws of physics  at the same time which we are happy to confirm are still working. 

Alas for Tom this meant he ended up with some road rash and bruises to deal with, he has seemed to have a run of bad luck in racing so far this early season, we hope he turns this around for the late season.

Well done to Kelsey for checking on Tom and pushing him to finish, points mean prizes and Tom is currently sitting in joint 1st place for the series, you do realise if you win you get the mandatory upgrade right Tom? :D
