GRANT Ferguson and Annie Last both took their third consecutive British Cycling Mountain Bike Cross-country Championship titles at Hadleigh Park.

The venue, which hosted the Olympic mountain bike races in 2012, is now back in use again and open to the public.

Spectators were treated to a day of thrilling races, starting with junior competitions in the morning and ending with the senior races later in the afternoon.

Ferguson and Last went into the championships as the favourites and lived up to that billing.

Last, who competed on the course at the Olympics, was a clear winner in the women’s race while Ferguson comfortably saw off all his rivals in the men’s race.
