Redhill NPS 4X

Well this report is a little late as it's a couple of weeks ago now! But I had an exam to study for so I just haven't had time to write anything til now.
Loved riding the track it was really good fun and suited my style with loads of jumps. Jumping the whole of the bigger triple down the long straight was cool and I loved the step down and the big last jump.
After a bit of over night rain saturday night the track dried out and was running fast again. Until we were waiting for our first moto and the heavens opened! Most of the riders were up there on dry tyres and hardly anyone was getting down the track without a crash as the wet clay was so slippery.
It worked out ok for me with 3 wins and a 2nd in the motos, I was into the semi finals. The first corner was a bit of a lottery and I got swallowed up by it in the semi final. I went into it in second but was to close to the guy in first and got bumped off line leaving the door open, I found myself in 3rd out the 2nd turn. I managed to pull off a good pass keeping tight over the hip and shutting the door over the step up, but in the next turn I got a move stuck right back on me. I jumped the last big jump which gained some ground and chased to the line, it was close but not enough.
A shame as that would have got me 3rd in the series but I still ended up 4th and on the podium. Chuffed with that!
