Josh Cachia showcased some amazing bike skills by riding the wheels off his Factory backed Honda, finishing with a second overall with a 1-2 performance. “This track is gnarly, it was one-lined everywhere,” Cachia said. “It was tough, but killer racing. I’m not one to give up, I’ll fight to the end and that’s it. I need to work on my starts – bring on Conondale. I really appreciate Carlton Dry Honda and big thanks to them.”
In the MX1 Class athlete Todd Waters come out swinging with a 2nd place finish in the opening race, after being cleared in compete by Suzuki RACESAFE after qualifying. Moto two was tougher, as he circulated to 8th with the goal of maintaining the red plate.
“I came here to do one thing and that was to keep the red plate,” Waters said. “That last race was one of the toughest I’ve ever ridden but I have to hand it to the guys on the podium – they rode the wheels off their bikes. I’m looking forward to coming back, putting it back up there with them, so we’ll regroup and go from there.”
