NI Champs, Rnd 6
7th May 2017, Maddix Park, Rowe Road, Tauranga Results On Sunday morning on the way to the event one of the observers thought he was going the wrong way so he turned around and ran into one of the other observers. They were OK but their utes were written off. I didn’t like Sunday as […]
NI Champs, Rnd 5
6th May 2017, Muirs Farm, 746 No 4 Road, TE PUKE Results I went up with Kevin Pinfold and Phil Stephenson. It was a bit weird. Mum and dad were travelling up at the same time but I couldn’t go with them. They had to take uncle Robert’s small Subaru, full of computers and stuff. […]

9th April 2017, Opawe Rd, off the Pohangina Valley East Road, Pohangina Results I got a ride out to the event with Uncle Robert. I had to get there earlier than usual to help set up. Adrian Walcroft was going to do it, but something came up. I only set section five (5,3,3,2). All I […]
NI Champs Rnd 4
2nd April 2017, Grant McEwen’s, Upper Durham Road, Opunake Results On Sunday morning I felt like I had just been hit by a truck. The last thing I wanted to do was move, let alone get on a bike. It didn’t help that it was drizzling. Once I was on the bike, however, things started […]

1st April 2017, Andrew Clement’s, 497a Wiremu Road, Opunake Results Taranaki did the 3rd and 4th rounds of the NI Mototrials champs this year. There was some problems getting a steward.

Sunday 19th Feburary 2017 (results) Hazel and Paul drove me out to the trials event but didn’t hang around because they wanted to have breakfast in Palmerston North with Paul’s dad.

Sat 11th Feburary, 2017, Maugakotukutuku Valley It was a really cool ride. The only problem was that I didn’t get enough sleep and rode into heaps of stumps, whacked my handlebars on trees, and rebroke my back mudguard. I got some new boots from Brendan Wadsworth. They were a little bit tight at the start […]

Ixion Trial, Feb 2017
Results Mum and I were almost late getting to the event. We got there with just enough time to sign in and get the bikes out. Mum says that I’ve been there before, but I don’t remember the property. It was a pleasant surprise to see Phil Stevenson there. He usually just goes to MOMCC […]
