Location: Marsh Tracks, Rhyl, North Wales
Event: 22 August 2012
Report: Jon Harland

Talented junior Gerallt Allen (Rhyl CC) scored his first win of the season in the senior race at the Graham Weigh Cycles Series at Marsh Tracks in Rhyl on Wednesday night.

After four second places on the trot, the Rhuddlan 16 year old's aggressive style finally paid off when he succeeded in breaking away on his own with 15 minutes of racing to go for a four second victory over a fast closing pack.

Matt Limacher (Champion System/Maxgear/Kyklos) and GB Academy youth rider Dylan Kerfoot-Robson (Rhos-On-Sea CC) led a bunch in that had been frustrated in their efforts to close in on Allen by club mates Paul Griffin and Alan Forrester.

Team work was also effective in the Youth A race, with Rhos-On-Sea CC's Alex Harvey getting worked over in classic fashion by eventual winner Robert Rogers, Jack Hulme and Max Spedding of the Birkenhead North End CC.

Dwyfor CC's Twm Bryn prevented a clean sweep for Rhyl CC youngsters in the other youth races, gaining his sixth win of 2012 in beating Craig Rogers (Birkenhead North End CC) in the gallop in the 'C' category.
