Mum and I helped Kevin set out the trial. We did most of the clearing while Kevin did most of the section setting.
I was riding with Kevin, Warrick and Daniel Herbert from Taranaki. I didn’t get to see many of the other riders.
We had some new riders. Abe Herbert, who’s Daniel’s little brother; my nephew Jack Richardson; and neighbour Vinnie Veltman. They were all under 10.
We also had a new Senior, Ben Rasmussen. He didn’t hand in his card but mum said he easily coped with the Sportsman class and should provbably be up a grade or two.
Daniel has gotten quite a lot better lately. For instance, he’s now hopping both wheels. He narrowly won A Grade from Warrick and Kevin.
I was the only one to clean section one all day, which was good because I got beaten on all the other sections.
For the first three laps I fived six on the first bank. On the last lap I managed the whole section for a two.
All the sections were hard but not impossible and were fun to ride.
I had an awesome day.
