| Tony Fawcett - British Cycling North East Cross Rd 12 Durham |
The all carbon cyclo-cross specific Mud Dog has been an awesome weapon. It's light weight, responsive, has great acceleration, couple this together with good mud clearance and you have a winning formula. The Mud Dog has seen many race victories this season under the command of Alan Nixon and Tony Fawcett.
Tony finished an impressive 2nd on sunday in Durham on a testing course, seen here at the top of a climb that became almost impossible to ride as the grass was worn away and exposed the mud. Team riders Vince Potter finished 9th and Simon Davison slipped back from 11th to 16th after a mechanical meant he had to run part of the last lap with the mud dog on his shoulder to the finish line. Good job its light!

The strength of the Mud Dog was confirmed when Alan Nixon competed in the epic Three Peaks Cyclo-cross Race and came home in 17th Place with over 515 starters. Another good result for Alan.
Hopefully Alan will have the rest of the cyclo-cross team to back him up in the 2011 3-Peaks Cyclo-cross Race.
There is one race left of the British Cycling North East Cross League to go at Whitley Bay. Current league standings have Alan Nixon placed 4th and Adam Martin (Junior rider) placed 6th.
Unfortunately Alan will not be racing this weekend, lets hope he can hold onto his 4th place overall in the league.
