2025 Manor Races

The 2025 Manor races were held on a cloudy day, with no wind, but a bit of a chill with temperatures below 50 for the most part. The flat light made dramatic images harder to come by, but the below was ended up as one of my favorites for the season. I typically cover 6-7 miles over the hills in a race day, with at least one sprint from the bottom of the valley to the top of the hill early on.

Every year the Manor Races begin with The Mini My Lady’s Manor Exhibitions. Some of these riders will be tomorrow’s champions!
