SWANMORE REPORT

Report by Kay Turner

130 riders arrived at Swanmore recently to take part in Portsmouth Motocross Clubs Winter series, and round three saw all riders raring to burn off those extra Christmas calories.  A glorious sunny, but cold day resulted in a brilliant day of racing, and started off the New Year on a high.

 

            With the introduction of the new adult open class, the VMX class put on a show of different bikes, speeds and styles, with Alan Scott and Shaun Brooker both vying for the win, and some nail-biting, head-to-head racing was witnessed.  Scott took the overall with two wins.  Not to be outdone, and after stalling his 450 in race one which lost him his lead, Brooker took the win in race two to take second overall.  Shaun Skeates remained consistent, just far enough behind the battling front two to stay out of trouble, and with two third places, took third overall. 

 

            After a long absence, Martin Turner returned to prove he still has what it takes, and with a flying start finishing in third in the first moto, Turner secured fourth overall.  Jamie Winbourne battled hard to catch Turner, and succeeded in the final race, snatching a fourth, his highest position of the day, and took fifth overall.  A gallant effort from Andy Watts who was still suffering from broken ribs, rode bravely into sixth overall with three consistent sixth places.

            A great turnout of Senior riders provided some excellent entertainment, with Chris Wratten taking the honours of the overall win.  A change of tyre after the opening race gave Wratten better grip on the slippery track, and ended the day with a win.  A true master in the mud, Chris Bick relished in the sloppy stuff in race won, pulling out an amazing lead over the rest of the field to take the win.  His remaining high scores awarded him second overall on the day.  Jackson Evans blasted around the drying track, his brilliant performance awarding him with a win in the second, and a second in the last to finish third overall. 

            Another great performance from Oliver Rusby who rode a set of solid races, keeping his nose in front of his rivals, and finishing third in two races, kept hold of fourth overall.  Elliot Reeves battled with Rusby in the opening motos, staying in touch with his back wheel, finally securing his place in fifth spot.  With a rocket up his exhaust pipe, Jacob Myers flew into an incredible fifth place in race one, keeping his points tally high, and with another two top ten positions under his kidney belt, Myers finished in sixth overall.

            With only a handful of Inter 85 riders, the riders joined forces with the Inter Open group to fill the start line.  The top three riders kept their positions throughout the day, with Rob Muscat a clear winner in all three races, even having time to look back to see where his opposition was.  Gareth Padgett rode hard to catch Muscat, and three consistent and well-ridden second places awarded him second overall.  Injury-free at last, Daniel Maxey returned to the track and rode impressively well to finish in third, taking third overall. 

            Adjusting to the frozen conditions in race one, Jordan Carrier soon sped up the leader board as the track thawed.  Two brilliant fourth places awarded him fourth overall.  Darren Wingar rode a steady, consistent and impressive set of races, passing the chequered flag in fifth in all motos to finish in fifth overall.  Harry Hinson with constant support on the sidelines powered into sixth overall, two sixth positions rewarding him with vital points to keep his name high up the leader board. 

            Michael Denton took maximum points in the Inter 85 class after leading his fellow riders in the mixed group.  A magnificent, fighting effort by Daniel Lawler who ended the day in second overall in his class.  After such disappointment in race one, Lawler was unperturbed and fought hard to finish in second in his remaining races.  Harvey Huckstepp rode a great set of races, two third places a brilliant result, and enough to award him third overall in his group.

            The super-quick Juniors were next on the line, with Joshua Coleman leading the pack from start to finish, three perfectly executed wins awarding him the overall victory.  Billy King sped up the race order throughout the day, a fourth, third and second awarding him second overall.  Bradley Rowe kept the leaders in his sights, a third in his final moto ensuring he finished in third overall. 

            Tom Gathercole blasted around the course in his opening motos, a third and fourth ensuring a top three placing was his.  But a nasty tumble down the hill left him having to fight his way back through the field, remarkably still finishing just outside the top ten from last.  Fourth overall was eventually awarded to Gathercole.  Matthew Dowse’s positions improved throughout the day as the track dried out, and ending the day on a high, finishing in fourth place, fifth overall was awarded.  A great effort by Oliver Evans who finished the meeting in sixth overall.  An outstanding, whole-hearted effort in the final moto rewarded him with fifth place.

            A handful of Autos braved the cold to venture out onto the muddy track, but conditions failed to slow down Olivier Cook who stormed ahead of the pack, securing all three wins to be overall victor on the day.  Connor Ford rode a set of smooth and steady races, passing the chequered flag in second to take second overall.  William Easey fought hard to pass Ford but settled in third in all motos to take third overall. 

            A battle pursued for the next two places, with Liam Jones and Ben Richards battling it out for supremacy.  Jones took fourth overall, two fourths and a fifth ahead of Richards.  Race three saw both boys chopping and changing positions throughout the race, until the final corner of the final lap saw both fall off at the same spot, with Richards managing to cross the line first to take over sixth spot.  Jay Ellis continued to improve in his class, moving further up the leader board.  Taking full advantage of the Jones/Richards fiasco in race three, he snatched fifth place helping him finish in sixth overall.

            Last out were the AMX Open boys, the class seeing three different winners throughout the day.  Exhilarating action from start to finish, Lee Foyle grabbing the last race win away from Scott Robinson to take the overall victory.  Unable to grab a win for himself, but staying right in the thick of the action at the front, Nick Leer scored two second places to take second spot.  Race one winner Darren Banwell rode another impressive set of races, keeping his eye on top spot, but settled for third overall. 

            Chris Southcott battled hard at the front of the pack, staying with the front runners, with his best result coming in race two, finishing third, slotting him into fourth overall, level on points with Banwell.  With a dominating win in race two, Scott Robinsons high scoring secured a top six placing.  Passing the chequered flag in second in the final moto gave him enough points to finish in fifth overall.  After finishing Senior Club Champion in 2007, Jamie Tempest remained a force to be reckoned with in the AMX class, three results in the top ten in the competitive class proving his capability on the bike.  After storming into third in his final race, Tempest finally settled in sixth overall.
