Sorry for no Updates
Not much to report on really i have raced a few regionals up in Manchester and Coppull the past few months ,still been training but there are no decent races to do.
Except for last weekend my dad took me to a big Euro race in St Etienne France with over 2000 riders !!!!
We flew out with my friend Cameron and his dad Tony when we landed we drove to the hotel it wasnt too far from the airport but as we got closer the snow got deeper and deeper it was unbelievable .
On the Thursday i was off school bad my throat hurt and i had a really bad cough so my dad wouldnt let me play in the snow .
On the Sat was practise day i woke up and felt really ill my voice was going (which my dad was pleased )
I did a few laps and liked the track and it wasnt too long which was good as i didnt feel very good.
I had to race in the 9/10s class there was 90 riders and some were huge (im only 8 not 9 till middle next year)my dad never told me i had to race the older age.
Any way my motos went well i won every one my dad was really pleased as i was so ill ,he even got me a new hat.
Sunday was the start of the qualifiers as expected i woke up even worse than Saturday so my dad said dont worry just go and have fun and dont worry.
In the pens my riders were huge i wish i was in a different race any way my dad said just because they are big doesnt make them fast ,i got on the gate and had first pick due to my wins on sat and picked gate 4 ,i got a mint gate and couldnt believe it got into the first turn in 2nd 3rd and was flying but for some reason got the turn totally wrong and came out 7th i got back to 5th but the 4 in front were the 4 biggest riders and one even went on to win the main so i was quite happy.
At least im not scared to race the older boys and when im fit and done some more training i think i will give them a good race .
I will get some pics up asap.
Im off now to play with all my new toys !!!!!!

MERRY XMAS!!!!!

Redline Round In Assen Holland

What a weekend it was great my dad took me to stay at my friends house Tino Popma .
We got there at about 9pm on friday so we didnt have much time to play before bed .(16 hours travelling my dad was moaning )
Saturday we went to Tinos locall track that his dad built it was really smooth and tight with lots of little jumps(i can see why tino is so good at jumping now ).
The afternoon was practise at the track in assen i felt good and my gates are so much better than the last few races so alls good .
Its good how they run practise cause you can get some laps in the afternoon and then they have more on the evening about 630 .
After the evening practise we went back to Tinos for tea and to play .
Sunday is race day and me and Tino were in the same races so i new it would be tough from the start ,anyway we had some good races with me winning all the races so i was well pleased i really think i can win the final.
I had first pick and Tino 4th i was going to pick gate 1 my dad told me to pick gate 8 and get the gate and shut them down but i picked gate 2 .
The holeshot was mine and i got a troy lee voucher so i thought yes a new helmet LOL.
I somehow got the jump wrong into the first turn and nearly fell off but managed to keep in front of everyone but i had killed all my speed down the second straight and tino had managed to keep out the way of me making the riders bunch up and railled the top of the berm and got good speed out of it and caught me going into the second berm and got thru on the inside ,i was gutted my dad was upset .
After the race when we put the bike in the car the front tyre had gone down and i had lost 3 bolts off my chain ring (i thought it felt strange ).
But to be fair to Tino he rode a great lap to take the win so well done Tino .

Check out the pics below and thanks to Harry and Nellie Popma for letting me stay with Tino

Race Update

We went up to the new track in Manchester on the weekend for a North Regional race
the track is really good nothing too big and quite smooth.
The weather was ok but it poured down with rain just as we were in the pens for the finals .
When the moto sheets were posted i couldnt see my name in the 8 to 9 boys it was a full gate and i
began to panic looking for my dad ,i found him and he said( sorry lew i forgot to tell you i had entered you in the 10 boys )WHATTTT i shouted the 10 boys anyway i calmed down and went up for my first moto they were massive .
I have been practising my gates a lot lateley i have had to learn to watch the lights .
First moto and i got a good gate and didnt back off as they surrounded me and got the lead and won by quite a long way i was well pleased!!!!!!!
After that i was up for it as i knew i could beat them and won every race even the final in the pouring rain and to top it off i even won a trophy so not a bad day ,its a start as i have lost all my confidence this year and have not been trying my best at the races.
I am learning to manual and jump now so i enjoy my training again .

My friend Tyler s dad took some pics of the regional race at Harwoth on Sunday

I won all my races i was testing a new frame which is a bit bigger than my old one

A big well done thou to my friends Broc and Ezra from Zimbabwe who came W2 and W3 .

In the UK my friend Aaron is doing really well in the 9 boys class way to go Aaron.
My first race back was the mansfield national but i didnt do that well on the saturday my dad didnt even let me race the final as i was that bad.
On Sunday i did a bit better and i actually got the holeshot in the main but went super high on the first berm and every man and his dog came underneath me lol ended up 4th
Two weeks later it was chesterfield national i love this track as its so fast down the first straight ,
i won some motos and got a mint gate in the final crossed my lane and hit ethan (sorry)
my dad and tony did tell me to get over .

Then Jamie fell on me after we tangled on the 2nd berm so i ended up 3rd



My local track derby has also been closed for 2 months so it was hard to get up a track and practise in the week after school.



My dad has been training me hard and i also do football at school now so that keeps me fit



UEC RACES IN HOLLAND




My dad surprised me and said we were off to race in holland (i love racing away its great)

i went with my friend Dan Blanche who is in my age group and also rides one of the new gunslinger frames ,Dan rode well both days on sat he just missed the cut for the semi and on sunday he was in 4th to the 2nd berm and ended up 5th in his semi so it was close.

I won all my motos on sat and hit the gate in my semi last to the first berm i got back to 3rd so alls good PHEW final time again my gates suck for some reason im getting too nervous and getting them all wrong i ended up 7th TERRIBLE .

Sundays race again i won all my motos and won my semi but come final time i had first pick and i picked gate 7 so i would get blocked in got a decent gate but just couldnt get over and got a 4th

well done to my friend Tino who won on sunday.


2nd UEC AT Harksbergen


What a track it was great me and my dad went to this one on our own we set off at 4 am on friday to get the ferry it was a long way we didnt make it on time to get any practise on the friday night so i had to wait for saturday to do a few laps and straight into racing.


Saturdays race i won all my motos again and felt good i picked gate 2 next to my friend Tino Popma but again my nervs got me again and my gate sucked but i still finished 2nd so not too bad .

On saturday night me and my dad went to the dirt jumps with Tino and his dad Harry ,i couldnt do any jumps but Tino was brilliant he was jumping everything .

I played with Tino and his friends all night while my dad and Tinos dad watched the elite men i had so much fun.


Sundays race again i won all my motos and was feeling good but again in the final picks gate 2 and blimey what a gate i was 7th to the first jump i just dont know what happens in my finals .

Martin Verhooven got the holeshot and i raced him in all my my motos so i knew i could do it my dad was going mad i could hear him shouting at me coming out the first berm .

I hit the turbos and got mad with myself and got up to 4th by the 3rd berm but a long way off 2nd so i just pumped and peddaled the whole of the last berm and flew down the last straight of rythyms and got 3rd very nearly 2nd so my dad was a bit happier .Well done to Tino who won both days (next time ill have a win once i can get my gate right lol)

Belgium Open Champs

I went to Belgium on the weekend to race the indoor champs ,i went with my friend Aaron and his dad.

We went on Friday (great a day off school for me !!!) i had to get up at 0500 so we could catch the train .

The race was in a massive hall next to a big bike show ,there were people jumping on to rocks and cars in another hall it was great.

The track was horrible it was really soft and slippy and the jumps were huge.

Saturdays race i won all my motos and the final so i was well happy i even got to go on a big stage to get my trophy .

After racing we went back to the hotel and had my favourite dinner spag bog (race fuel)

it was late when we got back i didnt even get chance to watch spongebob on the tv in the room (nasty dad )

Sundays race i was a little tired but still won all my motos and the semi ,my dad told me i had to try even harder as i slowed a little down the 3rd straight and the other rider might catch me ,

his name was mitchell we tried to be friends but he couldnt speak English .

In the final i holeshotted and never looked back i did what my dad told me (for once )and won .

I had raced 9 times and won every time so i felt really good .

My dad was panicking as my mom is having my baby brother any day now and she called to say she was going into hospital ,this was sunday morning and i was still racing luckily for my dad my mom was ok and my brother is due to come out in a few days .
