I spose i cant complain that im fourth in England in juvenile but still am really annoyed for not doing better .


My motos wernt the best id ever had which gave me last pick at gate.  I got a good snap out of the gate and was tucked in behind the eventual winner and as the track split into two lines on the second straight i took the outside line planning to over take however my feet slipped off the pedals on the stepdown type thing causing me to case the middle jump of the triple, i was then passed but determined to get the place back i peddled over the next tabletop resulting in my foot slipping again and me being overtaken into the berm after the i couldnt recover and came home in last. - i really need clipless pedals.


 The next day went a bit better with me winning 3 of my motos and a second after i crashed in first and got back on and held it out against the winner of the nationals in my catagory the night before.


So going into the final i was really confident every one in the races were says how good my snap out the gate was and my mum brought me a royal race kit -shame i broke the buckel on the shorts when i fell off.  On the gate i had first pick and then began concentrating, ready for the gate to dropm, however the snap every one had commented on wasnt there it was terrible at the first corner i was second and thats how it stayed , i was inches away from being passed on the line but i held on to it.  That race pissed me off more than the nationals as on that day i was the man to beat but i couldnt put it together in the final.
