Great Britain’s World Trophy team are LEADING the 2022 ISDE after winning Day 2! Two days down and we are in the lead in the World Trophy, second in the Women’s Trophy and third in the Junior Trophy.
Jane Daniels had a standout performance to finish second overall in the Women’s Trophy.
Test 1 was better today with everyone feeling a lot more comfortable on their bikes and putting in consistent time. All of the trophy team were within the top 13.
Test 2 was really good for all ten riders with Steve Holcombe finishing 3rd, Nathan Watson 4th, Aaron Gordon and Alex Walton had standout rides in the Junior class to finish 11th and 12 respectively, and Jane got her first third of the day. It was very dusty but we put in some great times and were lying first overall for day 2 after just two tests.
Test 3 was brilliant and once again the fan support was incredible. There were some impressive results from all riders with Nathan and Steve finishing 3rd and 4th and Jane placed second. Jed Etchells had a great ride to finish 7th in the Trophy class.
Test 4 was the Trophy team’s best test of the day as Nathan got his highest test finish with a second place. There was a short shower of rain for the trophy and juniors which cleared the dust and helped. Jamie put in a stellar ride to place 4th in the Trophy class!
Test 5 was a great way to end the day as the crowd was massive and cheering everyone on. Nathan and Steve placed 2nd and 3rd respectively which was incredible! Nieve Holmes had her best result of the day in 8th.
Rosie Rowett and Nieve Holmes were putting in consistent results across the day which allowed the Women to maintain their second overall.
We are in a great position in terms of start times for Day 3 and looking forward to a change of tests!
