“Steve did the Dead Turtle before the start and threw himself into the bushes, through the fence, into someone’s front garden, pulling up flowers and rolling around in the mud to get the jersey dirty.” Apparently the strategy worked and Steve had a great run, upright, and crossed the line in 4:11.82 and held the hotseat for over a half hour while creeping into the top ten. It looked like the podium was in reach until Cameron Cole came across the line just .05 seconds faster. “Now I know how Greg felt at World’s,” said Steve.
"Interesting notes:
* Sam Blenkinsop took the top spot in qualifying but had a very loose finals run and ended up 4th at the end of the day.
* Nick Beer had 4th at the first split in qualifying but also had problems come finals time.
*
Gee Atherton continues his battle with Minnaar and took a solid second place in the finals.
*
Sam Hill sat Leogang out and is still out with a shoulder injury from Fort William. Will we see him at Champrey?
* Greg Minnaar is proving to be consistent this year and took another win after his second place qualifying run.
* Josh Bryceland hit his head on a tree in his race run and did not finish.
* 2009 World Champion Steve Peat seems to be off pace this year but managed his best result of this season in 6th place"
