Great trial today at Heightington for the second round of the BMCA Championship. It made a nice change from the normal tight and twisty sections that are usually the norm for the BMCA and instead Keith Gardiner put on a great trial along the rocky stream at this venue.
The first lap was quite difficult with all of the slime on the rocks but it soon scrubbed off and made for a really good event.
I actually felt that I rode quite well and looking at the results I guess I found my level as the usual top guys scored really well. Although I lost quite a few marks I honestly think that only about 9 of them should have been saved so I am pretty happy with how things went.
Bike went well and no injuries, which could have easily happened on the slippery stuff!
Next round is at the Old Mine, Kinlet next month.
