The second race of our Criterium Championship took place at Asla Park in Somerset West. This tricky little circuit saw a few of our riders take a tumble, but no damage done, except to pride.
The day started as usual with the U17 and open category riders. Again we saw Morgan Jones take the win from Faraaz Khatieb and Calib De Kock in third.
