Small Wheels

11th December 2011. Jordan still riding really well. Got knocked off in 1st race pulling a tear off and then stalled bike when on for a top 10 easy. Second race fell whilst in top 10 then raced back for tenth. Last race stopped on but tired when he had worked himeslf up to 6th after two laps. Really happy with his riding. Mepal toughst track in the coountry and that's the toughest I've seen it. Well done keep up the hard work. Good championship postion in 8th and top 6 well in reach.


20th November 2011.Once again Jordan was awesome. 6 weeks on this bike you would have thought it was 6 months. He is beating himself up because he crashed. If he hadn't he would have gone 6-4-6 and 4th overall despite this he got 6th overall in a quality field of riders at what the BSMA is calling a National Winter Series. Also he holeshotted and led the 2nd Moto. Well done kido!

6th October 2011. Went another level today gated 2nd in 2nd race a ran at front on the pace for two laps then tired. 3rd Race gated poorly then came through to 5th got into a great scrap between 3rd 4th & 5th changing positions every lap more than once. Pushed back to 5th before woops on last lap then passed for 4th then was passed then passed back again and nearly had 3rd on line. Awesome ride and one of the best ride I have seen you in. Things are happening watch great effort!

30th October 2011. Two weeks practicing solely on Small Wheel 85 then into first race. Well I knew he had taken to the 85 well but this 1st meeting was AWESOME. Great starts riding well jumping great BRILLIANT SON KEEP IT UP!

65's

5th & 16th October 2011. WELL HOW ABOUT THAT! What away to finish a season 2011 BYMX TEAM EVENT CHAMPIONS and Jordan rode abosolutley awesome! Bike problems (crank seal) mean't last at start in 1st race but came from 35th to 5th. Bad starts all weekend and a broken front brake caliper in race 3 but rode superbly through pack to top 10 in each race. He was on fire the best I have seen him ride ever. Fantastic lad and what a way to close the 65 era. Love it!

17th April 2011. Thought we would try the hard park and boy it was hard pack. Jordan was jumping massive only one to do the big Table top, he is loving his jumping at the moment. Some top national riders there so 2nd overall was a good ride. Well done Jordan.

9th & 10th April 2011. Crashed in 1st corner in 5th and the rest piled in and bend the chain guide which meant the chain kept derailing and couldn't get a finish. Only rider in clash to DNF so it messed the whole weekend up. Aimnow is to get into top 10, will be hard but a great target!

26th & 27th March 2011. What a weekend. Great start in the first race out of the gate then some muppett brought Jordan down halfway down the start straight. Got up back to 15th in two laps out of 39 then the power valve shutdown as dirt blocked the breather. Second race great start 4th into the first corner and a great ride to 3rd in the Champonship. Holeshotted the third with an absolute blinder of a start and LED A NATIONAL FOR A LAP AN A HALF absolutly mind blowing. Ended up third in what was a great ride nearly grabbing 2nd at the flag. In the fourth race again it was going to be a good start but hit a rut and whilst going in 2nd the rest swept in pushing Jordan back to 20th then aught back to 7th by the flag. Well Done! I knew you had it in you, 5th in the BSMA british championship lets gofor it, you will never know!

19th & 20th March 2011. This was a tough meeting with 15 top national riders turning up. We weren't too bothered about the results but concentrated on riding without the clutch. Riding really well at times coming from last because of terrible starts. Not a bad results in the circumstances.

12th & 13th March 2011. Great effort riding really fast in really wet conditions but crashes and 6 burnt out clutches, 2 DNF's and a plug going down spoilt the weekend. More than capable of going top 6 need to work on riding without clutch and better starts.

6th March 2011. For some reason the clutch problems continue again. Poor DNF in the first then a great 5th & 6th resulting in a 14th Overall.

27th February 2011. We hadn't ridden for three weeks and all of half term and Saturday was too wet. Jordan was rusty however after the dnf a fall whilst 3rd and then a good 2nd things improved. I need to be more patient with Jordan it is about Fun, sorry lad!

30th January 2011 Although there were only 7 riders they were top national riders and Jordan rode brilliantly. First race last off start gate and came through to chase the leader down to second place. Fell in second race going for lead then fell again and got third place. Great win in last race to take overall after 3 riders were tying for the lead overall. Well done really good solid racing after a busy day at Justion Morris training school the day before and I know you were very tired after a week of being ill. All riders were top national standard keep it up son!
