We had the first 6 hour (actualy 7.5 hours) race of the Road Trial series in South Australia yesturday, and I was very happy to see the number of Huskys in the start area. Of 125 Bikes there were 9 Huskys including one sidecar. Great work!!! I have never been at a race with over 7% Huskys before, so I'm hoping this is going to continue to be the norm
And for the pics I thought I should get a few pics before I put my race face on! Mine is the one on the right. No stickers because they just peel off anyway! Great work on the sidecar.
I managed to finish without too many issues. I dropped it in the rocks once and got a bruise or two, but nothing major. The bog holes caught a few guys out, but other than a loss of momentum and laying it over from hesitating on the last hole, I managed to get through without too much drama. I am expecting to come in last in my class, but I really only go in it to see if I can finish. So in that way it was a win for me
Next race is coming up on the 22nd, so I will keep an eye out for the sidecar again. I'll put up a couple more pics if I can.
Hi Coffee, The sidecars do some extremely tight single track and some really amazing climbs. I would never have believed it if I hadn't actually seen it. There are a couple of races where they split the track for the sidcars to go around some really bad sections but they do most of the hard stuff just like the solos.
