Again, showing his desire and dedication to be on his bike, racing and winning, Chris Harris was to enjoy a very successful but exhausting weekend! Bagging a 15-point maximum on the shale at Glasgow on Saturday night, Chris arrived home at 3 am Sunday morning. Following a couple of hours’ rest, it was then back on the road to Herefordshire for the 2025 ACU International British Masters grass track Championship hosted by the Ledbury MCC, where he successfully defended his title. Having won in both 2021 and 2022, Bomber got the hat-trick, but it was far from plain sailing, shedding a chain during his first lap of practice, then again whilst leading two of his heats!

With a very large crowd in attendance and after some of the current 2025 ACU Youth grasstrack Champions along with Cruz Harris had led the participating riders out on the presentation parade, Bomber then displayed his intent to make it three consecutive Masters crowns by leading the opening 500cc solo heat all the way as James Shanes worked hard to pass Cameron Taylor for 2nd. In a frantic heat 2, Paul Cooper just about held off Alfie Bowtell to earn his first win of the day, as young gun Mickie Simpson, after locking up on turn one, recovered strongly to get home in 4th.
