DH End of Season

Rory Berine finished up a difficult season recently. Some photos from this year and his final two race reports follow:



Rostrevor NPS 7 27th Sep 09
I wasn't expecting much seen as i hadn't had a chance to practice the track before the race and the track was very fast and dusty. however it was my kind of track with very little pedaling required so i found it to flow very well. I had 2 punctures on the Saturday and sure enough one puncture in my first race run. I managed 6th position with a puncture so I felt good for my second run. I had a good second run but blew out a couple corners and missed out on 3rd place by less than a second. oh well, it was a great weekends racing on a fun dusty track.




Whitehorse NPS 8 4th Oct 09

I went to Whithorse with high hopes after the weekend before and because i won there in 08. However after driving over 4 hours on Saturday morning, on my first practice run, I went a bit too fast and slid into a tree after a tricky drop off in a steep off camber section and sprained my ankle pretty bad. That was my racing weekend over before it started. I'm back able to walk now so I'm happy enough not to have done more damage to my ankle. Roll on 2010.
