Inl<strong>and</strong> MX<br />
Championship<br />
Inl<strong>and</strong> MX.<br />
Round 2. East London<br />
30th April <strong>2022</strong>.<br />
Round 2 of the Inl<strong>and</strong> championship kicked off at the recently upgraded<br />
Wethered Compound in East London. Its an awesome track with<br />
some spectacular ocean views, which had most of the Gauteng riders<br />
gawping in awe. Riders flocked in from all over SA to join the fun.<br />
It was many of the competitors first outing on the long, s<strong>and</strong>y track –<br />
<strong>and</strong> they made good use of the early practice just after riders briefing.<br />
Eddie from <strong>Dirt</strong> Bronco was tasked with loading the gates – <strong>and</strong> the<br />
first flag dropped at 10h30.<br />
The local riders had a definite advantage, but the racing was super<br />
fierce <strong>and</strong> they did not simply walk the day.<br />
By heat 2 – which kicked off at 1, the out of town riders had the track<br />
sussed <strong>and</strong> this let to lots of very exciting racing.<br />
It was awesome to see the spectators out in their droves cheering for<br />
their riders – the atmosphere was really very cool.<br />
Prize giving was at 4h30 a roaring success, with congratulations all<br />
round. Then it was party time with riders, organisers <strong>and</strong> sponsors<br />
already planning next years race at this track.<br />
Big thanks to Shane Rutherford <strong>and</strong> the crew from Wethered from<br />
everyone at the Inl<strong>and</strong> MX championship.<br />
The next round is North Vs South. Bloemfontein. August the 6th.<br />
See you there.
