FRENCH INDOOR;
James Dabill, Team JST GAS GAS UK No.1 rider has just finished a busy weekend winning twice!

He drove with his No.1 Minder Jack Lee to Chalon sur Saone, 2 hours south of Paris in France and WON an Indoor Trial beating Factory Beta rider Jeroni Fajardo and GG Rider Loris Gubian on Friday night!
To beat Jeroni after he has competed in all of the World Chamionship Indoor Rounds this season is impressive. Jeroni has a good bike and technique for indoors so for James to beat him with NO indoor practice this year and never ridden a Gasser indoors before is a fantastic result.
Also worth noting he won this indoor with the normal Michelin rear tyre....keeping his 'lights' for Ireland WTC etc..
James is raving about the new Michelin 'light' tyres but was happy to ride the indoor on the normal tyre so this proves that both tyres win ;-)

1. James Dabill - 11
2. Jeronio Fajardo - 13
3. Loris Gubian - 30
4. Alexandre Ferrer - 43
5. Benoit Dagnicourt - 55

JACK WOOD NATIONAL;
Dibs then he drove back to sunny Sheffield and absolutely thrashed the oppostion winning the infamous Jack Wood Traditional National Trial yesterday.
The Jack Wood is a no-stop event which for a World Championship Rider can be tricky changing their 'mindset' from FIM rules to NOSTOP rules. Dibs did this with ease and simply coped with the different rules and conditions.
The Jack Wood is perfect practice for the forthcoming SSDT with mostly tricky steam sections that he rode effortlessly. The concentration needed for this type event is similar for the Scottish and i was very pleased with James' focus.
Welldone to National ace Dan Thorpe who made it a GG 'one-two' finishing second!

Jack wood results attached...

Dibs will now prepair for the first WTC in Ireland this coming weekend. He knows he has a good bike and i know i have a good rider so we will be ready.

Thanks to Jack, Kev and Dad for pic..
