 Had a great day as Russ said. Matt did really well for his first time on track in over 20 years and the JMC looked great too.

 Priv, Rich rode well again against tougher opposition.

 Russ, it wasn't dirty riding, just great tactical riding  

 Craig, were you there today?


 Matt on the gate during practice:


 Ruus with his elf suit on:


 Russ getting his snap on  


 Matt crossing the line in one of his moto's:


 Highlight of the day, the pantomime horse on a tandem mountain bike. They did ride it round the track in the moto's but left the bike behind in the final:
