British champs is just Devon sent

The important bit however these days is the postcode for the satnav which is TQ13 9RT, a great help when negotiating some of those narrow country lanes.

 

Ruby Rocks was used three years ago for the British Championships and the organising West Of England MCC felt it a better venue for a no stop event than Kelly Farm. 

 

It was also the venue for last year's Southern Experts and features mainly stream sections, usually quite accessible for spectators. 

 

 If you are venturing  down into Devon it is 20 minutes further south than Exeter and can be found from the Bovey Tracey turn-off from the A38.

 

Practice is on Saturday between 2.30pm and 5.30pm with the trial starting 

Sunday at 9.30am. 

 

The Expert group will be first away so the Championship contenders  will be starting around 30 minutes later. 

 

The Expert series is currently headed by North Eastern rider John Crinson who so far has a win and two 

seconds to his name giving him a tally of 54 points. 

 

Going into the last round he was level pegging with Sherco's Richard Timperley but Timps finished well down at Scarborough and he will need to get back on the leader board  in Devon.  

 

Adam Milner currently holds third and he has been very consistent this year and he won at the Mackenzie in 2011 so he cannot be 

discounted in what is always a very competitive class. 

 

With Simon Kershaw coming into the series and winning last time out there is all to play for.

 

The Championship class is a fascinating mix and so far a total of  20 different riders have scored points in the 

series. 

 

At the top it will surprise no one that those two arch rivals James Dabill and Michael Brown are fighting it out at the front. 

 

Browny won the series opener in Scotland but Dibs has come back to take the next two rounds, including in Browny's backyard in Scarborough and that puts him just one point ahead in the title race. 

 

Alezx Wigg is lying third on the Gas Gas and he won  in Devon the last time the series came to Ruby Rocks

 

Alexz has riders breathing down his neck with Jotagas mounted Ross Danby just behind him. Gary Macdonald, Sam Connor and Sam Haslam are all there in the mix too so the number three plate race is really hotting up.

 

Let's not forget the 125cc Championship that is also proving to be a straight shootout between Bradley Cox and Tom Dexter. 

 

Bradley has two wins to Tom's one but they are just are just three marks apart so they still have all to play for.

 

Get along to see Britain's best keep their feet up!
