Nick Towers picked up an excellent fourth place for the team in the Enduro 6 six-hour mountain bike race at Catton Park. Towers was competing in his first endurance race of the season – and his first for Naked Bikes – and had been looking for a top-10 finish from the 80 riders.
However, his consistency over the ride saw him do considerably better than that, and four hours into the event he was running in fifth place.
He managed to pick up one more position and even shaved a minute from his lap time on the final circuit.
Nick's result is even more impressive given that he obviously had to overcome the mental reluctance to ever race at Catton Park again after 2012's Sleepless in the Saddle event, where the course conditions resembled a World War 1 trench system!
