JAMES DABILL (JSTGG) and SHAUN MORRIS (JSTGG) has just finished first and second at Round 4 of the British Trials Championship.

Dibs was ‘master-class’ on Sunday and won easily over his Team mate and the rest of the Championship Class riders.
With a late start time Dibs was keen to practice on Sunday morning to wake his sleepy legs up on some huge Morlais Quarry steps. This helped Dibs because he started the event really sharp and went to section 6 still on clean. His first lap of just ‘9’ demoralized the opposition with Browny next best on 22.
Another two solid laps from Dibs made this BTC event win possibly his easiest to date. Only a ‘brain-fade’ moment on the last section, second lap spoilt his near perfect day when he underestimated the final step.

Shaun Morris continues to regain his confidence and was rewarded with a well-deserved runner-up in front of 3rd place Alexz Wigg. Shaun had an average first lap but then had two fantastic laps to make it a GG ‘one-two’.
Shaun has helped Dibs in his title fight beating both Wiggy and Browny who won’t have been happy with 4th place on the day.

Ross Danby was next best JSTGG rider in 5th who was riding well. Ross got frustrated on the last lap after a big crash on section 4 but kept fighting as normal to grab 5th at the finish.

Sam Haslam was 6th, just four marks behind Ross. Sam had three fairly consistent laps and just kept out the No.2 Sherco Rider JR who finished 7th.

GARY MacDONALD overcame his food poisoning of the past week to finish 2nd in the Expert A Class and another healthy 17 points to help his championship fight. Gary felt weak all day but eventually decided to make the long journey south for the event. Gary should be very happy with 2nd but I bet he’s gutted about missing out of the win by only 1 mark..

Ricky Wiggins (AlbionGG) had another good 5th place.

Guy Kendrew (GASGAS) had another good 3rd place in the Expert B Class with Dan Farrer (JSTGG) in 7th.
The Expert B Class was VERY close this weekend with the winner losing 21 marks and Farrer 7th on 29..

The JSTGG Youth Riders were out in force and Chris Short was 2nd in the Youth Class in front of the ‘I.O.W’ boys Chris Stay and George Gosden who were 3rd and 5th respectively.
ACEGG rider Tom Dexter was 4th.
