RECENT NEWS
So you can probably tell that my site has not been updated for a while. Simply because I have not been able to, I have been away and have been flat out with no time to do it, and my sister has also been away and she does my website for me.
So I spent a month and a bit in NZ I did 4 races, these were the 3 south
island cups and national champs. At the first national in Dunedin I came
in a good 4th position I was not expecting this, so that was good. The
second national was at Coronet Peak in Queenstown, I had ridden here before
and I loved the track and came out with a win there so I was loving it,
my first pro win! Then the final national was in Blenheim, I really enjoyed
the track the bottom section was a lot like an English track, and I left
Blenheim with a 2nd place behind Justin Leov. The final NZ race took me
to Nelson, where it was a wet first 2 days and it dried up in the end,
but in the race I had a crash and came in 13th, so I was a bit disappointed
but I had a good time in NZ so it is all good.
After NZ I flew straight to Europe to Barcelona to a local race there
with my team mate David and mechanic Jack. I had a hard race suffering
from jet lag so it turned just to fun for me. Then I had a few weeks off
before Vigo last weekend where I was loving the track and had such good
fun with the boys. I had a good run and won junior by 6 seconds, and finished
10th overall, only 3 seconds off winning, so that was ok.
Now I am at home for a couple of weeks before leaving for South Africa
for the first WC a week on Monday!
End of season trip to France
So over the last few weeks I spent some time in France, I started off in Paris for the SX, this was really good and I enjoyed every minute of it. It was awesome to see Bubba in action, a lot of my friends from home had seen him riding a few weeks prior to the supercross and had told me how good he was, I was like ‘yeah what ever’…but he really was amazing, he could come out of a turn and seat press 70 feet, he smoked everyone, I think he lapped to about 4-5th place, it was really cool it was so loud, people with chain saws, with no blades.Thanks to the guys from MotoVerte.com for that.


Then I headed over to stay at Myriam Nicole’s place in Montpellier,
this was good, Sam Dale also came over, we just rode at hung out for the
week, riding skate park, xc, and I did some dh on a hardtail haha it was
cool! We also went go carting, and went in the sea- it was pretty cold!
but it was real good, thanks to her for having me, was real cool. Cheers!

The season has been over for a while and I haven't been doing that much
really, went to Battle Royal Steve Peats famous motocross race in October,
I ended up coming home early because of the stupidest thing that was wrong
with my bike. Only a week later did we finally realise what was wrong
but luckily it was nothing serious and it's all fixed.
I rode a bit of downhill up at the new and improved Hamsterley- well done lads!
Just been chilling out really, I am off to France this weekend, to Bercy
for the Supercross, go watch Bubba kill all them euros, then I’m
going to stay over in France for a week do some riding.
When I get back I am not here for long before I go to Reunion Island for
another Avalanche race so it is still pretty flat out.
I just got back from Madeira Island the other week, where I was doing
a street race, and did some downhill, they have some real good stuff over
there for a tiny island.
Something else I am looking forward to is my trip to NZ in February.
I’m going to stay with Justin Leov for the month, it should be really
good.
I also just received some Neoguards through from Craig Bromley at RapidRacerProducts.com,
they are cool check out the pictures below
