Caddihoe Chase 22-23 Sep

This year's Caddihoe Chase at Cookworthy Forest near Okehampton attracted a large number of BOK members and provided some exciting finishes on Day 2. David Maliphant finished just 2 seconds behind SBOC's Ben Doherty on JM5M, while Alan Honey pipped Mark Selley to the post by 5 seconds on M45L, with Duncan Innes taking 3rd place. Jackie Hallett enjoyed a more comfortable 18 minute lead on W50L and Clive won M21L 9 minutes ahead of Ben Chesters. Other notable performances included Matt Lyle (2nd on JM5L), David Palmer (4th on M60L), Jessie Benjamin (1st on JW3), Christine Farr (2nd on W21L) and Anne Donnell (1st on W75L). Cookworthy offered some excellent courses and terrain on Day 2, making up for some less pleasant legs on Day 1. The rain held off until Sunday, allowing those camping to enjoy a late summer evening of sunshine - hopefully not the last. Full results here.
