After a shortened week with Memorial Day and Chris trying to heal up from wadding himself at Oak Ford working. It was a few long nights in the garage and a Saturday trip to Hall's to get ready for the Sprint Enduro at White City. We finally made it down to the track and the weather was close to perfect. The Club had 2 test for us to run. The red test was about 6mi and the blue test was about 4.5mi. The red test was the more technical section with it being hilly and the blue test was open more with a few creeks to cross. The race started out with Mark on the red test on minute 5. He was in unfamiliar territory because he never runs in an early number. Chris was on the blue test for his 1st test on minute 22. Chris' 1 st test got him splashing his goggles and soaking his gloves with water. After a glove and goggle change he headed over to the red test. Chris miss judged a the trail and went over the bars hitting his knee. He then ran his other two times in that test running smoothe and constant. Mark's 1st test he made it through clean and had fun going down the hill climb. In his 2nd he ended up washing out the front end costing him time. Now for his 3rd time through, 3/4 of the way through his throttle stuck wide open sending him straight in to a tree messing up the bike and banging himself up. Chris came back to finish his last two test to find dad in street close and his knee badged up. Chris put in his final 2 test smoothly without any major mistakes to finish the day solid. At the end of the day Chris finished 13th and Mark finished 10th. We like to thank Jay Hall for all the work he did to Chris' bike to make sure it was ready for the race. On to the next race! Thank you Carissa D Photography, Jhi Jhi's Photography and Amy for the awesome pictures!
