A few piccys from the weekend at Greenfields track. Jay Taylor 02, Ben Gotsell 122, 32 Steve Rhodes.
Frantic start on the Saturday for us, Jay's coil decided it pack up 15 mins before the first session, so a quick strip down and replacement fitted.
Ben then managed to whiskey throttle up one of the jumps on lap 3 of the first session, bending the rear subframe hoop and totally blocking the end can with mud 🤦♂️🤣. That ment onto the spare bike for the rest of the day for him. Spare bike was a little awkward to start, hence my bruised and battered ankle and inner shin! Note to self, mx boots ain't just for riding 🙄😆.
MBC really did miss out on this one. A cracking track, with owners who were properly organised. They were booking people in on the Friday night and issuing wrist bands to save the rush Saturday morning. Even had a riders brief at 10.30am Saturday morning to go through the running order and the rules (I've never seen that done before).
We had some flat track racing to watch Saturday evening once our riding had finished, plus 2 food vans, a bar and live music.
We'll 100% be heading back to Greenfields a few times this year 👍🏁
