MATCHAMS CJSSC May 30, 2006

Hi Every one had a chance to ride Matchams on the 28/29 May. Its a long journey from Yorkshire 265 miles. We had decided that we would ride with Cambidge Club as the YMSA had canceld the meeting at Pontrallis due to heavy rain, and this would give Alex the chance to ride in the 125 two stroke class only on a world class GP Circuit.With 25 riders on the gate it was going to be a tough one. The first race Alex had a good start and was running top 10 then having 2 crashes he came back to finnish 7th. Race 2 good start working his way up to 1 st then a mistake forced him back to finninsh 3 rd. The 3rd race once again having to work hard from a midd pack start to finnish 4th, on the day this gave Alex a 4th overall. Day two 1st race Alex had a good start leading for the first two laps then a crash put him back to 15 th he had to work hard once more over a very rough track to put in a top 5 finnish.Race 2 once again a good start putting him in the top five soon pulled through to 2 nd and having a bar to bar battle with the leader crossing the line in second. The last race of the day Alex was in second battling with the leader to finnish 2 nd by a bike length. We had a great days racing with a 2 nd overall for the day. We are now looking forward to our next club championship meeting at Midenhall.
