Langrish in Gold
By Andy Foulkes on 26th Aug 11
This weekend sees the ACU Goldspeed British Quadcross Championship visit the famous hillside Langrish circuit in Hampshire as part of the Ken Hall Trophy MX event.
With just the adult championships taking place for round five on Sunday, this will also be the last British championship race for multi British Champion Paul Winrow who announced his retirement earlier this month.
Organised by the Langrish Motor Cycle Racing Club, the circuit offers plenty of action with a hard packed surface, spectacular jumps and drops, as well as being set in the beautiful Hampshire countryside.
With John Mitchell having won each of the previous rounds and having just tied up the 2011 Scottish Championship on his ATV World Laeger's Yamaha, clearly he is the man to beat, but Mark Watson, David Wray, Carl Bunce and Paul Holmes will all be in contention and no doubt Mr Winrow will be aiming to go out with a win as well.
Admission on Sunday is £10 with racing taking place from 11:30am. As it is the 2011 Ken Hall Trophy two day event, camping is also available at £15 per unit. Admission cost for events on Monday is £20 (concessions half price and under 14's free). The track is at Manor Farm in Langrish, situated three miles west of Petersfield on the A272 - postcode GU32 1RG.
