It’s a pity that there were only 27 riders but they raised £200 for the Scarborough & Ryedale Mountain Rescue Team. Some of the tracks were a bit muddy but the weather was much better than the previous day’s cold north-westerly wind. Thanks to Jens for another excellent map which he printed free of charge, Barbara for helping me at the start and finish, FC for not charging for a permit, the Fox & Rabbit for an excellent event centre and BMBO for waiving the levy fees. Finally, a special thanks to Frank & Sandra Appleton who were the marshals at Breckon Howe then collected the rest of the controls in after the riders had passed through them.

Hopefully, we will celebrate the tenth running of this event next year with a lot more riders.

Thanks to John Dixon adding your scores from Malham and Pickering. Please let me know if there are any mistakes. There are still 4 events left so plenty of opportunity for change

LEAGUE 2015 after 7 events

James is ahead in Y18 but Nathan & Max can both score well if they get the opportunity to ride

Roy & Chris Partington have a lead of 4 points over Steve & Ben Collins but have ridden one more event

Graham Tibbott has a 40 point lead over Ben Martin in M21

There have only been 2 rides in W21 so it depends on who turns up

Phil Collings has a 22 point lead over David Cowgill and they’ve both ridden 5 events but AW and AC have only ridden 3 times this year so who knows.

Sheila Pearce has a strong lead in W40 so looks like repeating her winning ways from last year

John Rawden has a lead of 16 points over Michael Nayler but Tim Evans has averaged 85 points per event so far

Helen Bagley has a clear lead in W50

David Day has a 17 point lead over Ray Morriss in M60 but plenty of riders still in with a chance

Karen Blackburn looks like she’s going to win W60 again

Andrea & Steve Foster have a clear lead in X50 over Ralph & Chris Defty and not many teams competing in the other age groups.

All 4 courses at the OMM Bike in Swaledale on both days count for the NYMBO League. The par score will be worked out from the highest points per hour on any of the courses.

If the best score on Saturday is 700 on the Polaris then it will be 700 on Long, 500 on Short and 300 on the 3 hour course.

If the best score on Sunday is 240 points on the 3 hour course then it will be 400 points on Polaris or Long and 320 on Short

You can still enter the main event on http://www.theomm.com until September 11th and the 3 hour course on http://www.bmbo.org.uk until September 16th. Hope to see you there.

We have got 30 entries for the Moors Marathon but only 2 volunteer marshals. (Thanks, Frank & Sandra). Please let me know if you would like to marshal a checkpoint usually for 3 hours so that the riders get some refreshments on their 100k ride. It will also mean that I don’t have to collect the controls in at dawn on Monday!! Cheers, Steve
