1 Race in 2020 !


Covid 19 was in full swing by April and effecting everything it meant that the racing was cancelled for 2020 - except for one! 

Our club Vasterås SMK held a race in the middle of summer under the restrictions which was appreciated by all of us racers 

So we got ready for a race, in a new category - Stock class !
Buying wet tires to put on spare wheels from rydergren racing.

Boys making adjustments to the bike 
Lewis was too young to race this year on the kayo so he spent the practice sessions swapping over from Travis and sharing the bike, this worked quite well for this transition year and also meant that we could haul the bike around in the garage area of the new motorhome. 



We ran just the one bike this race completely stock in the stock class - getting to know it better. 

We had a really annoying niggly issue over the entire weekend which took us ages to find the source of the problem - The bike was back firing at higher rpm and losing power - Eventually, a long after that race we traced the problem to bad connection in the block connectors in the wiring loom ! 

Travis in action and getting to grips with his MR150
Two races and two 2nd place podiums = happy lad

Not bad ; ) 2nd place on a very rough running motorcycle - we will happily take that for our first ever race with the Kayo 







Other nice moments from that summer of 2020 



Downhill mountain biking in Järvsö - first time and it was very fun 




The whole gang - a stop at orebro, restaurant in an old water tower with fantastic views - while traveling around sweden in the summer hols



Down in the very south of Sweden  - on holiday and meeting up with Roland and family at a very cool museum - Johanna museum
