Results: QLD State Series Round 1

The Queensland Bike Trials Club kicked off the 2010 season over the weekend with a great urban comp at the TNN workshop. Despite poor weather all month the local (and not so local) riders were not deterred with 24 competitors and quite a few spectators turning out for the trial.

It is always nice to start a new trials season, everyone is eager and excited, if not a bit nervous. Best of all though it is a chance for like minded souls to get together over the sport they love. One of the great things about trials is that riders are not just there as competitors but also as friends and even in many ways team mates. The photo at the top of the post exemplifies what makes trials a great sport as we see Morgan Driessens and Lewis Greenhalgh reaching out to save their Pro class adversary Jack Mullaly from a nasty fall on the concrete.

The battle in Pro between Morgan, Lewis and Jack was a close one and sets things up for an exciting series. Morgan took top place honours, Lewis Greenhalgh second and Jack Mullaly thirs. All three riders are members of the ExpressiveBikes team and it was great to see them filling the podium spots.
