Elite Men Top 20

Elite Womens results.

Just had a quick skim through the results, and spotted that Manon Carpenter posted a 2:50.023 in the womens which would have given her a 2nd in Elite women, just 3 seconds behind Helen Gaskell.

We reckon she has definately got to be selected for the Junior Worlds this year.

Chris Kovarik must have binned it, 2:22.307 and 19th postition doesn’t sound like a clean run.

Helen Gaskell took the Elite win on the Zumbi with a 2:47.919.

Joe Bishop winning the Masters with a 2:28.634 on board a Dirt test bike, the Morewood Makulu. Stay tuned for Joe’s thoughts on the Morewood in a Dirt bike test feature coming soon.

Manon Carpenter, 1st senior woman with a 2:50.023. One to watch for the future.
