TROWBRIDGE schoolchildren will be racing against each other at Farleigh Hungerford in a couple of weeks in the Moredon Motocross Club event.

Grove School pupils Scott Clifford, Jamie Dell and Joe Rowe will be racing with the cadets and juniors at the annual event on 65cc motorbikes.

Up to 280 children and adult members will race each other in competitions throughout the day, with seven groups of 40 competing. The event will be on August 3-4 in a field at Farleigh Hungerford.

Moredon Motocross event organiser Lyn Barraclough said: "This is a family event that doesn't just cater for children.

"Lots of adults racing on fast bikes make for an exciting day out too."
