Tim Ward Enduro

Sunday, November 23rd, 2008

Venue: Hungry Hill, Aldershot

Result  1st overall

Having to hurry back from yesterdays race to change the barrell, piston and get the bike preped for today was a bit a rush but with Richie, Ryan and myself  we soon had the Yamaha back up and running and looking good for the race. The weather was not looking so good, very cold and wet. I set off at ten and decided to ride without a jacket (big mistake), when I got round the first lap I was so cold and wet a had to change my tops to carry on. Then into my first test, which went ok but I hit two trees at the end of the test in the tight part which cost me a lot of time, I think I was second on that one by 1 second. Another lap and the next test was better, I won that one by ten seconds. The times were spot on and it came down to one tight check which looked like it was not acheivable, I got held up slightly and dropped one minute which was frustrating as I should have cleaned it but I was more than a minute clear of Freddie so I took the win. Thanks to Rich and Ryan for fixing the bike and getting it ready for the race, Couldnt have done it without you. Well done to all the Kingston boys for the season, finishing south east club champions once again (I cant remember how many times in a row it is now). I could only fit three rounds in this year, but three starts and three wins I hope I did my bit, Not sure how many rounds we can do next year, But I look forward to riding the ones we can.
