Vitus-sponsored rider Matti Adair continued the defence of his Ulster Cyclocross League title over the weekend, finishing second in Lady Dixon Park, Belfast.

Here’s Matti’s report from the race:

"This weekend was the second round of the Ulster Cyclocross League and having finished third in the previous round I was looking to improve on this.

Having done a few practice laps I really enjoyed the course which was mostly dry with only some muddy parts. My race started well and I got a gap of about ten seconds within the first half lap. I rode around the first lap with the previous round winner Rodger Aiken closing on me quickly.

On the second lap, Roger flew past me and started to put time into me. Sitting in second I was keen to keep this position and already had a good lead over third place but continued to push on. I finished two minutes down on Roger but was happy to move up one place from the last race."
