CORC Rnd 4 - Majura 6/07/2008

Majura has been run and won. There was a great turn out on the day including some of our friends from Cooma, Bredbo and Bemboka. A field of 16 in the U15's saw Thomas place third. After losing his chain in his first run, he still managed to post a very respectable time. Dad fixed the chain for his second run and he managed to wipe another second off his time finishing in a time of 1:18.96. The U13's saw a field of 12 starters. Mum apparently saw the wrong time on the timing system after Andrew crossed the finish line for his first run and told him there were a couple of kids with faster times (BIG mistake). Well, Andrew decided to give it everything he had in his second run, hit a tree stump and ended up with a flat tyre. The results came out and it turned out Andrew placed 1st with his first run time of 1:31.18. Mum will make sure she gets it right next time. The track was extremely chopped up by the end of the day with many of the riders coming to grief after the finish line either wrapped around a tree or wound up in the timing board. Always a good day riding and hanging out with mates.
