Bike used - Honda CR125 2003 :-
Up at the crack of dawn. I'm starting to think that we are completely nuts. Getting up so early seems strange now that winter is upon us. Its cold and dark. It had been raining and the track was excessively wet and muddy. Even walking the track proved difficult to do let alone ride it. I was extremely nervous about riding in such severe muddy conditions, but felt more at ease once I saw that all the other riders battled and I ended up being the only lady on the track that did not fall during the practise lap.
By our first heat the track was nice and dry, however it was severly rutted. It was rough and tough but we all survived the first heat execpt for Dolly who unfortunately, after falling, could not get her bike started again.
Our second heat started very late in the day and visibility was poor. On some parts of the track you could no longer see the ruts it was so dark. I ended up taking my goggles off in an attempt to see better, but to no avail.
Finishing off in 8th Position overall. Standing 5th on the log after two races. But only because Amy unfortunately crashed in her second heat and ended with minimal points. (Championship points attached). Note to self - frame current results, I might not be 5th on the log for much longer. Competition's stiff. The ladies out there are talented.
