Practice
The track was very wet, but I was enjoying letting the rear of the bike hang out around the corners speedway style. The weather was looking good for the day so track would dry out through the day.
Race One
I got a shocking start but by the first lap I had moved into fifth position behind Dan Cole, the track was still very wet and boggy in places so I just kept my head. The track was already getting one lined as it started to dry out, so I just had to wait for mistakes from Cole. I got past him and set my sights on Joe Wright. I closed in on him in the next few laps but the end of the race was upon me and had to settle for fourth.
Race Two
I had a good jump off the gate but collided into the back of Cole and I was at the back of the pack again, so I pushed hard to pass riders but by the time I had got into sixth position, at the mid-way point of the race, I had a big gap between me and the top five but I continued to push and closed in onto them but I couldn't get past Cole and ended the race in sixth. |
