Richard fly's the flag for Uplands.

17 Aug, 2017

The Uplands boys are back from a good weekend racing. With Leif getting ready for the Manx GP 2017. It was down to Richard to fly the flag for Uplands. Friday's practice was a little damp but the sun then came out and the fun started. Saturday's race was damp but Rich made a good choice of tyres. Dry tyres not wets as the track dried up very quickly. The open 600 race felt better with a few clicks of the front suspension. In the afternoon Richard played it safe ( or was riding like a old man) and came home with a 2nd place. How I hear you ask? I have no idea but stranger things have happened. Sunday the sun was out in force and with Richard having fun in the street stock class, again finishing in 2nd place.. WOW! Think Richard should buy a lottery ticket asap! So now the Uplands boys are 2nd and 3rd in the Championship for 2017. Now we move to the Manx GP 2017 and Leif is all set and ready to go. Wish him the best and good luck stay safe fella. Pembrey for Rich next and then the boys head to Thruxton for the last round of the season.
