Jack's a 'bourne winner
By TMX Archives on 26th Nov 09
Reigning BYMX champions, namely Conrad Mewse, Ben Watson, Ryan Houghton and Josh Waterman, out on parade at Wilden Lane, together with Ben LaMay, James Lassu, James Dunn, Joe Jones and Ben Howell all on top form - round five of the Winter Championship not only beat the weather, it also turned out to be the best event of the series so far.
In the Junior section, Jamie Osbourne once again put on a show of quality together with a sure footed turn of speed that claimed for him the overall victory, ending the day with a 1-1-2 card. Hard charging Alex Walton snatched the final race win that secured the runner-up spot as Ross Davies just about edged out Bradley Malin for third.
The Small-wheel 85cc division produced three different and classy race winners, Jack Seabourne, Conrad Mewse and Robert Yates. Race two, however, turned out to be the best of the day with Conrad Mewse being ultra determined to get over the line first while fending off a fast and furious attack from Greg Hyett and Lewis Houghton in a real blanket finish. At the end of the day, with consistency being the key factor, Jack Seaborne's 1-4-3 card won it by a single point from fast improving and really impressive Lewis Houghton as Greg Hyett unluckily failed to finish race three.
