National 1 & 2
The 2008 race season started with a double-header at Burnham-on-Sea. Quite a few riders from Peterborough made the trip, and performed exceptional well considering the cold blustery winds - I wonder; what was the wind chill factor?
The usual suspects were there Mark Leach, Jason Jessop, Matt Allen, Lauren Smith, Arran and Mark Shrosbree, and last years British Champion duo Jonathan and Nathan Hastings.
However it was great to see the welcome return of Rob Clarke in 40+ cruiser; he's not been on a bike for about eight years!
New kid on the block Ethan Godden had a great weekend in his first National race, unlike his Dad who took a hard crash in his first moto.
