Regional Race At Sheffield

Just a quick report on the regional at sheffield last weekend it was pouring with rain all day but i had to race to qualify for our British Championships later in the year.
My dad was doing call up on the gate he got soaked but i was alright as i stopped in my friend chandlers van to keep dry.
We always race up age groups i had 4 3rds so it wasnt too bad i had some good battles with Louis Gray Blest .
Im not that keen on the track as its all big jumps and no pedaling .
When we got back home my dad said my brake was stuck on and my back wheel didnt spin (i thought it was hard to pedal).
Any way my dad changed the cable and cleaned my bike with Fenwicks bike cleaner and its gleaming again (you wanna get some of that all you do is spray it on leave it for a few mins and hose it off my dad says its great )

CHEDDAR NATIONAL
Back at Cheddar for the 1st national of the year, loads of new riders at this one im racing up an age this year in the8s 23 riders are registered for this one .
Sunday Race
In my motos i felt ok i had all 3 rds but in the semi i had a bad gate and finished 5th so just missed out on the A final .
In my B final i had harley who had a bad day falling in nearly all of his races anyway the race was between me and harley with harley just beating me .
Mondays Race
I woke up and it was pouring down with rain at least i could keep dry in the team tent (thanks Alan and Mike )my motos were a mixed bag really with me getting 5th 2nd and 4th so not too good really.
Semi time i picked gate 7 and had a great gate and finished 3rd nearly 2nd but louis grey blest just beat me .
My best mate Aaron also made the A final so that was excellent i would be racing him in the main.
Main time i picked gate 7 again and Aaron picked gate 8 i got a good start but nearly fell over that stupid first roller i ended up 6th i think but they marked me as 7th so wasnt happy Aaron finished 4th so a good result for him .
We won vouchers for the final which is great cause my dad said he would double what i won and give me cash so i can pick some new toys .

Ill get my mom to post a few pics of the weekend
Regional Race at Cheddar
We went down to cheddar for a race the week before the national so i could ride the track it felt ok i raced in the 8s and won every race so that was good .
Still not sure if i like that first roller its too big to pump you just launch off it and close your eyes and hope for the best.
sorry no pics

My Gates suck !!!!!


Im really struggling with my gates at the moment so my dad has arranged some lessons off our No1 Elite Pro Kelvin Batey at mansfield track i feel im getting faster kelvin is teaching me how to push out the gate instead of what i normally do and wait for the gate to drop .

Thanks for your help Kelv

Race Update Milton Keynes Inter Regional .

Oh well back racing in the UK loads to tell you ,
my first race back was the milton keynes inter regional it was the biggest regional in the uk for years .
I raced up in the 8s there was about 25 riders my main rival from last year was there Gideon who is real fast i only beat him once last year.
This race was like a national with all last years top riders in the age above so this was gonna be tough.
In my motos i got all seconds i couldnt believe it i raced gideon 3 times and and beat him everytime.
My gates were terrible everytime i was going in to the first berm last but i just powered the first berm down the long second straight and passed everybody .
Semi time it was stacked my best mate Aaron Dalleywater won it i was in a safe 3rd but went to pass Harley for 2nd round the top of the berm and he put me over the top so crashed and didnt make the A final .
I didnt bother racing the Bfinal as it was late so we went home and had a mc donalds on the way home .
