Thought i would big myself up just a little,
heres the final cruiser race of the national season. http://www.bmx-race.co.uk/Chesterfield_2006_Main.htm click on 40+ cruiser A final
I had to win it to secure the 40+ oldies cruiser title.
My competition ended up being the old pro himself Tony Slater not from Adie (although he never gives up).
Tony gave a bloody great race. Well done Tony. You looked fast all day.
Shaun Calvert had a bad crash but thankfully is okay.
So the old pro freestyler got the win from the old pro racer. It was close though.
Iam dead proud to have won it for Alansbmx.com on his 25th year in business and it being 25 years since i was last sponsored by the team and 25 years since Ruffell beat me to the number 1 plate in the 15 year old age group!!
Now lets have Eric Rupe in the worlds!!!
As one of our team so perfectly put it " you finally won it and still have all your own teeth"
