| Gaskell And Griffiths stun World Cup Stars. Business as usual for Peat British Cycling Federation 2000 RAV4 Mountain Bike Series DH Race 1, Innerleithen, Scottish Borders 31st March – 2nd April 2000 Steve Peat took an expected victory in the first round of the 2000 RAV4 Downhill Series. A full four and a half seconds clear of runner up, Rob Warner, Peat underlined his world class credentials on one of the longest and toughest hills in the UK. Crawford Carrick-Anderson was third ahead of Matt Farmer. [BIKEmagic notes: It seems a shame that Steve Peat puts in a win of four second over Rob Warner and gets reported as "business as usual". It’s a stunning ride, and his consistency says far more about him than many people think. Good on you Steve] The Elite WomenÇs race produced a shock one-two for two of the youngest riders in the field, Helen Gaskell and Fionn Griffiths. Pre-race favourite Tracy Moseley was a full ten seconds down on Gaskell whilst fellow world Cup star Helen Mortimer came in fourth.
