Teenager Elsa Rendall Todd finished off a successful 2022 season with a British Championship title.
The 14-year-old, who has been BMX racing for a decade, came out on top of the pile in Bournemouth over the August Bank Holiday weekend in the female Cruiser 13-16 age group.
Over the last 10 years, Rendall Todd, from Shorne, has been regional, national, British, European and world champion. She races on two bikes, the traditional BMX and a Cruiser.
The traditional BMX has 20in diameter wheels and this year she has been racing the boys on this bike.
The Cruiser has 24in diameter wheels. On this bike she has raced the girls and, as well as winning the British Championship title, Rendall Todd has topped the ranking for this year’s National Series, winning all six of the rounds she raced.
As well as her British Championship and National Series titles, she had great success at July’s World Championships in Nantes, France when she made it to the final on both bikes.
She finished fourth out of 42 riders on her Cruiser and sixth out of 63 riders on her BMX.
With the two world plates she won this year, Rendall Todd now has eight world plates having won a plate on her BMX every year the championships have run since 2015.
She also won two at the last event pre-Covid, when she again rode both bikes.
