Dabill wins 3rd round of British Championship

18/05/2010

James Dabill No.1 JST GGUK Rider has just won the 3rd round of the British Trials Championship in Devon.

Dibs was in awesome form this weekend and won in style by 13 marks over ‘on-form’ Michael Brown.

The overgrown wood was fairly dry but extremely slippery which never dried completely due to a few light showers. Michael was hoping for severe rain because he was riding at the front whereas Dibs was near the back of the entry doing his own thing. We were praying for the rain to lay off otherwise Browny may have had the advantage.

Nevertheless Dibs’ gamble to chill paid off and Dibs rode relaxed all day. He struggled on section 2 which was tricky and soooo easy to ‘five’ which he did on the first and third laps. However he kept his head very well and never panicked. He knew the nature of the venue could trip anyone up for quick fives and whereas Dibs struggled with section 2, his pal Pune struggled with section 10. Dibs was used his head very well yesterday and impressed me. He kept his flamboyant riding style to a minimum on the slippery rocks and had a few sensible dabs that were needed.

The top boys now have a welcome weekend off before BTC action resumes in S.Wales in two weeks time.
