ST HELENS lad Jonathan McEvoy has just lifted his first national crown after riding clear of the field at the National Cyclo Cross Championships at Abergavenny, South Wales.
The victory on January 8, represents a tremendous achievement for Jonathan, aged 15, from Sutton Leach.
Jonathan, representing his club Liverpool Century RC, beat off a 66 other competitors to win the prestigious youth event by a three second margin.
Having stuck with the leaders throughout, Jonathan had enough left in the tank to hold off nearest challenger Tom Smart on the last lap.
