Canada Heights 27/05/01:

Race 1: I got off the gate good, despite the water they put down.For those of you who don't know, it's a concreate start.I was swamped by the four strokes after about the first 15 metre's of the uphill start.There was a big pile up in the corner which put me back to about 30th.By the next lap I had got all the way up to 11th. I then closed up on the others real quick and battled my way in to 9th.Then as i was going up the uphill ski-jumps at the back,I jumped too far and hit some lose mud,this resulted in the front washing out on me, and me winding myself.I had bent the clutch lever so i rode slowly for the next lap as I had lost too much time on the riders.This meant i was in last, and put in to the C Final

Race Position: 30th

Race 2: I got out the gate good again, then swamped by the big four strokes again.I battled hard with a guy on a YZF426 for about three laps, then decided I was losing too much time so I had to put a block pass on him and put him over the top of a berm! I then made it easily through the pack up to second which was where I stayed for the rest of the race.

Race Position: 2nd

Race 3: I had the same start again, off the gate good and swamped by the four strokes. This time I found the race easier for the first few laps so I started doing the "one handers" for the crowd. Towards the end I started to suffer from arm pump as the track was real ruff. I still managed to finish 2nd though.

Race Position: 2nd
