Riding away from a vitual race long chasing group, Stuart Wearmouth produced another flawless performance to take maximum league points at the Barnesbury CC promoted CXNE Round 8 at Bedlington on Sunday.

With his second convincing display in the last two weeks, it seems that only Scott UK’s Tony Fawcett who hasn’t ridden since Round 6, will be able to challenge for the overall lead. The event was another successful promotion with 177 riders taking part in weather that was a sharp contrast to the previous week.
Hitting the front as the Senior field flew away from the start, Wearmouth set about taking 10-15 seconds a lap from his nearest rival as behind Colin Ash (Cestria CC), Alan Nixon (Blackhawk Bikes), Dean Penfold, (Newcastle University CC) and Darren Gee (Teesdale CRC) combined their efforts in a four man pursuit., leaving behind Craig Anderson (Achieve CC) and Nixon’s team mate Darren Binks.
The relentless speed of Wearmouth though still saw him pulling away and by the 5th of 9 five and a half minute laps, saw him a clear minute ahead of Nixon who decided to take matters into his own hands and chase alone. His efforts saw the group finally split up as Alder attempted to regain contact with his former ally. It was never to be and the five finished spread over a minute and a half, with only Keith Murray (Scott UK ), making up for a first lap crash, Binks the only riders not to be lapped.
Beacon Wheeler Morgan Donnelly produced a similarly impressive ride earlier in the day as he again outpaced Scott UK’s Kenny Johnson as he tore around the technical rolling course after his usual three lap warm up while lapping 60 of the 80 man field at least once. Not to be caught out as last week in a late sprint, Denby kept up his effort to the line as he had time to look around and appreciate his win.
