Hawkstone International Sunday night NZ time
Saturday 19 March: Hawkestone is the big pre-season International Motocross with all of the major Grand Prix and UK race teams in attendance.
This weekend has finally arrived and the HIMX team are all geared up and
ready to go for the Hawkstone International. The Hawk Plant diggers and
bulldozers have been, the track is looking great and so far the weather is
fantastic, the riders are set and the action will kick off early Sunday (UK time) morning at the fantastic Hawkstone Park venue.
In amongst the heavyweights of MX2 is
Kayne Lamont. I say heavyweights because there are names like Arnaud Tonus, Valentin Teillet, Jake Nicholls, Matiss Karro, Max Anstie, Tommy Searle, Mel Pocock, Neville Bradshaw and Zach Osborne
Kiwis will also remember
Jamie Collins whose parents Richard (aka
Richie) & Karen and sister Georgina lived in the Nelson/Murchison
area for some time before returning to the UK. Jamie rode for GB at the Junior Worlds. Jamie is also
entered in MX2 but not on yellow, now on orange. .
MX1 gets better with Stephen Sword, Tom Church, Gordon Crockard, Tanel Leok, Steve Ramon, Jason Dougan, Shaun Simpson, Clement Desalle, Martin Barr and Sebastien Pourcel
