It was a day of the traditional 29er snakes and ladders. As ever in the 29er fleet consistency was key which required both a cool head and good broadband. So how did the fleet perform?

With two seconds, 2811 Ollie Evans took the top spot but with 2338 Toby Bloomfield only one point behind and also first junior. The spotlight will be on young Mr Evans tomorrow.
