Top pair return to action in the mud

THE seventh round of the GKMC motocross championship took to the mud again on Saturday at Pleinmont.

The action started with the combined A group of MX1 and MX2 riders and Hamish Moriarty made a good start with the holeshot and taking first with two Jerseymen – Sam Allix and Brad Le Feuvre – behind him.

Back in the saddle was Jersey rider Harry Bertram after a nine-month absence and his first run out on the Guernsey course showed he had not lost any speed with a second and first.

A welcome return to the 2009 winner Luke Lesbirel also made for some great racing. He and Moriarty, both on the 125 machines, had a good battle but a missed gear left the door open for Moriarty.
