After a few years of this event not running it was cool to see it back on the moto calendar again as Pukekohe always puts on a good event. Like all race days lately it rained right before practice which made it really challenging, the clay stuck to everything and was so slippery. Once the sun came and the track started to get tacky it was much more fun. My starts were good, I loved being able to send it over #1 again and mum did a good job of being my mechanic. The showers affected different parts of the track at different times so I had to work on consistency, finding the better lines and staying on my bike. I was aiming for top 3 and while I’m annoyed that simple mistakes put me in 4th overall (3-5-4) I was happy to be out there riding.
