私にとって、ここ一週間は特別な週でした。9日間連続でショーに出演した後、1日だけ家にいて、その後イタリアに向かい、特別ルールの招待制競技である「グランプリ・インテルナツィオナーレ・ディ・バイク・トライアル・サンタル」に参加しました。
主催者はイタリア人ライダー 5 名と外国人ライダー 5 名を招待しました。このイベントは、非常に人気のある海辺の観光スポットであるヴィアッジョの中心部で開催されました。私はイベントの宣伝のため、土曜日の夜にウォームアップ デモに参加し、メインの競技は日曜日の夜に行われました。
大規模なイベントでした。夕方には何百人もの観客が集まり、メディアもたくさん来場し、カメラマンやテレビクルーも大勢いました。とてもペースの速いエキサイティングな大会で、参加してとても楽しかったです。私は5位でフィニッシュしましたが、悪くありませんでした。結果よりもイベント自体が良かったです。
家に帰ってから1日経った後、私は小さなイベントに招待するメッセージを受け取った。
グッドウッド・フェスティバル・オブ・スピード！ 木曜日にGASアリーナで、モーターバイクトライアル、フリースタイルモトクロス、BMXイベントと並行してMTBトライアルイベントが開催されることになり、参加するよう依頼されました。 参加したライダーは 3 人で、アリーナ全体を回るコースがありました。3 つのタイム セクションがあり、最後にレースがありました。アリーナの大型スクリーンでライブ撮影され、何百人もの観客が私たちの様子を見守り、私たちの後を追っていました。バイク トライアルにこれほど興味を持って、たくさんの人が私たちの後を追ってくれたのは素晴らしいことでした。競技自体はそれほど本格的なものではありませんでしたが、それでもドニーさん、私は勝てたはずです! ライダーがパンクを修理している間にセクション中にスピードを落とし、少しスポーツマンシップにのっとりすぎました。少し遅すぎました! 1 位を逃したのは、このせいです (負け惜しみですが、来年再戦しましょうか?)
アニマルバイクツアーのジェームス・ソーンとトライアルのレジェンド、マーティン・アシュトンが解説を務め、素晴らしい仕事をしてくれました。競技中、何度かインタビューを受けるのも楽しかったです。表彰式ではシャンパンが吹きかけられ、賞金も授与されました。私はレッドブルXファイターズに参加するフリースタイルモトクロスのスーパースター、佐藤栄吾からメダルを授与されました。
この日をすぐに忘れるわけにはいきません！
