Rob Jebb made a popular move by returning to fell racing today at the Wansfell Race in Ambleside. He returned aftera five month break following a fall at the English Championship race at Whittle Pike, where he dislocated his shoulder. But a classy turn out meant that Rob could have been in for a tough test. Also lining up with him wereCarl Bell,Phil Davies and Mark Addison. Phil Davies and Carl Bell set the pace, but half way up the road to the fell, Rob and Mark Addison cruised past them. Rob and Mark then led all the way to the top of Wansfell Pike.Phil was next to the top, followed by Tour of Helvellyn winner, long distance specialist, Kim Collinson. Carl dropped off the pace, a bit, as it was Mike Fanning next to turn, followed by Carl. Rob made light work of the slippery descent and he finished a 'considerabledistance' in front of Kim Collinson, who must have taken some great lines to pass Mark Addison and Phil Davies down the fell.
