Last updated: Friday, 7 September, 2007

Headington’s men won for the second time this season to regain the lead in this year’s cracking competition. One point covers the top three teams. Among the women Abingdon won for the first time, but Headington stay top.

In the individual competitions Sally Pitts now has a healthy lead over Helen Roper. James Bolton has Tony Lock much closer behind him, but may be able to hang on if he keeps on racing.
