Fantastic track, awesome riding by all. Pics and vids up tomorrow
Hats off to Scott and Sonya for the event they hosted...top class...thanks Hook and Sonya!
Luke Beechey won every race but he had to work hard for them. Barry Gilbert came in second overall and then Michael Roycroft. I would have had 4th in the bag except for a big get off in the dust when i couldn't see a thing in the 3rd race

Well race 1 was were i lost my chain, race 2 was were i was in a good spot, like 5th or 6th and got stuck on a rut in the mudd, lost traction and had to dig my bike out, ended up 14th, and race 3 was in 5th until the last lap, got crossed up in a rut and got spat, managed to jump back on and get 7th though. so unfortunately, was not a good day at all for me yesterday. anyway, we all have those days sometimes.

yes i seem to have those days all the time!! was going great till the last race yesty...was coming 3rd until the end of the 1st lap...blinding dust , couldn't see a thing then hit one of those massive wheel ruts and spat me straight over the front head first into the dirt...lucky it was soft otherwise i would have been worse off!
Those ruts...holy crap have to stay away from them
