Chicksands Mini 4X repo from Tom G and Oke

Last weekend was the annual Chicksands 4x race, and the turn out was no different to any other Chicksands event - it was packed. There were just as many spectators as riders lining the track to watch the mayhem begin. With more than 130 riders signed up for racing in 7 different categories, it was going to be an eventful day.

Racing kicked off at half 12 and each rider had 3 motos each. Then straight into quarters, semi’s and the finals. With money up for grabs for the top two riders in each category, every rider was determined to do well. There were also loads of prizes for third and fourth positions. Loads of stuff from 661, Halo, Spank, Protec, Gusset and loads others. A big thanks to Chris Roberts for organising it with the help of Steve Dowie, and Chicksands Bike Park.

Here’s some results from the day, the ones I can remember! A more thorough race report in the next issue, with all the results!
