West Cornwall Motor Club held its annual Hare and Hounds event, a round of the South West Championships, at Bellowal Farm in deepest west Cornwall.

A total of 141 riders enjoyed beautiful sunshine in which to attack the 7.7 mile circuit, which was made up of steep fields, moorlands, woods and a particularly muddy lane.

Chris Dustow from Par led from start to finish, eventually pulling a lap on the rest of the field. Tim Carter missed joining him by only 40 seconds. Chris's brother Steve completed the Top 3 in the Championship Class.

In the Expert Class Mark Denslow beat Martin Cheesman into second place by 57 seconds, with local man James Williams a further 3 mins back in third, all completed eight laps.

The Clubman Class was split into 4 stroke and 2 stroke and by the capacity of the machine, the best of the big 4 strokes being Kevin Lamacraft by 27 seconds from Chris Johnson, both on seven laps.

In the smaller 4 strokes Jason Davis topped the class over five minutes clear of Steve Jose and Martin Lucsombe.
