Ten
Neil Price the best of the locals at Australian Trials Championship
Kiwi Jake Whittaker has upset the locals, winning the 2011 Australian
Moto Trials Championship in the Barossa Valley, South Australia.
Motorcycling Western Australia member Neil Price was the best of the
Australian riders, finishing in second ahead of fellow Trials des
Nations teammate Kyle Middleton from New South Wales.
West Australian's Lewis and Alex Nolan finished 7th and 10th which is a
great effort as they have been unable to compete at all event's this
season. This also meant that all WA rider's that competed in the event
finished in the Top Ten in Australia.
Held in the picturesque Barossa Valley over two days, competition was
fierce with Price coming from fifth after the first day to take second
and his third consecutive podium at the National Championship event.
Krisite McKinnon claimed her third Australian Championship, winning the
Women's title ahead of defending champ Michelle Coleman, while Amanda
Cummins (Tier 1) and Lucinda Clarke (Tier 2) blew the field away to take
out the Junior Women's classes.
Jonathon Chellas walked away with the Open Junior title, Connor Hogan
finished top of the pile in the Junior 7-12 class.
Rob Jones was the best of the Masters class, Lachlan Gibson claimed the
Youth class crown, while the team of Luscombe and Sparkes won the
Sidecar title.
