The 2nd meeting of the New Zealand League takes place tomorrow at Moore Park and I'll be adding updates onto the Moore Park Facebook page at www.facebook.com/Mooreparkmotorcylespeedway/posts/483847225089173 for anyone that fancies a look.

James Sargent and Jason Bunyan will both be involved so a bit of English interest too

NZ Championships this Saturday 3rd Jan from Moore Park.

 

Updates will be on the Moore Park Facebook page once again. It's a 5pm start local time so 4am for those in UK.

 

It is the Aussie Champs too I seem to have read so there may be some overlap

Yes, by sounds of it most of the Auckland based riders have decided against riding in Christchurch. Unsure on their reasonings, but with Jason Bunyan and James Sarjeant going head to head again it should be a good meeting.

 

Add in locals Andy Aldridge, Dale Finch, plus Oreti duo Hayden Sims and Grant Tregoning, and Ryan Terry-Daley there will be no shortage of action.

Bunyan stopped while leading his semi final. He was beaten in each of his first two heats but then seemed to have overcome some issues with his bike. Sims led the final deep into the third lap but made a couple of small mistakes to allow Sarjeant to move through to win even though he had exited turn 2 lap 1 in fourth place.

 

Enjoyable meeting but it would have been good if the Auckland contingent were there to strengthen the field.

 

Hayden Sims was unbeaten in the qualifying with some quick gating. Hopefully he can continue to improve and go further in the sport. I like Dale Finch as well. A real battler.

Bunyan switched bikes for his 3rd ride, which was his older NZ bike apparently and may explain the dramatic change in speed.

 

One thing to note though is Bunyan won 3 in row then lost, 3 in row then lost, then another 3 in row and lost this one!
