THE North West Track Championships covering cycling clubs in the Lancashire/Manchester and Liverpool areas have been held over several Wednesday evenings at the Kirkby Open Air Stadium and on the final session Dave Ebbrell of the Blackburn and District CTC claimed a brilliant gold medal by winning the 10 kilometre championship. Dave broke away from the field with one and a half laps to go for an easy win. Shaun Pearson of Darwen took bronze in the same event, adding to his his two silvers already gained in the sprint and the one kilometre time trial, the Blackburn club can be justifiably proud of their performance against some very tough opposition.
