Riders ready 3,2,1 - GO!

Last weekend was the start of the race season, Steetly DH / BMX Nationals / UCI World Cup.

Steetly DH was awsome a great turnout and loads of fun. The track had been around for months and was riding very good on saturday, too good infact with 3 hospital visits within a week, 1 - Broken nose 1 - Broken leg 1 - Broken vertebrae and ribs get well soon people. The race it self went ahead with a few last minute changes to make the track safer an more enjoyable, loads of people turned up to race and probably more people turned up to watch. The race was well organised and fast racing against the clock makes the track ace and with everyone cheering it feels like a mini world cup. Ripper roberts lived up to his name by ripping two rear mechs off within half hour, unlucky DNF!!!!!!!!!
Alex Rolls made the trip down from sheffield and raced without even seeing the track navigating his way down the new track in 1:12 and improving by 10 seconds in his second run. We all knew batey would take the fastest time and he made it look easy. Mayes raced and posted a time of 53.82, my fastest time was a 51.31.


Derby BMX national - The 1st BMX national for DBMX riders, not sure what happened as i wasnt there but the team did well for their first outing. Jonny's category was the most stacked with 20+ riders in his group which made racing really hardwork for the youth. Carr had a busy category with Dale holmes racing in his category the lad did ok though, more road miles for you!!! Grant beat Dom which is always good haha, he did well in most of his races.

The UCI DH and 4X race took place in RSA, and it was good to watch all the pro's back on form and doing what they do best all the action can be watched at www.freecaster.tv

Next month is another busy one - Rotherham, Peterbough, Rebel Racing round 2, Burnham National BMX and the MBUK live Dual Slalom event!!!
