From Cross Country to Pencil Ducks and Motocross
It’s been another busy, busy weekend for Team Tork Craft in cross country racing, motocross and even on the water at the Pencil Duck World Championships around the country. With great results including overall and class wins across the board, among the team’s fairer sex also delivered some most impressive performances.
In perhaps the shock of the weekend, Team Tork Craft’s Deruk van Aswegan rode his little OR3 class RTR Kawasaki to overall victory at Verena’s GXCC Gauteng Cross Country Championship round on Saturday. Not to be outdone, Sigmafix Tork Craft Yamaha lad Tyron Beverley came home second overall and second in OR3, while sixth overall, Marco Cocci won Masters on his Linex Sigmafix Tork Craft Yamaha.
Not too far behind, Liam Scheepers took the 125 High School win for Sigmafix Tork Craft Yamaha, while Team Tork Craft also enjoyed an exceptional day in the Junior classes. Lourens Erasmus took 85cc senior honours, where Adam Meyer ended fourth, while brothers Ulrich won the 65 cc class and Liam Sterley rode home fourth despite not feeling very well at all.
Cross Country lass Sharisma Kriel meantime continued her great performance with a splendid third in OR3 Pro Am en route to being second of the Ladies home. Speaking of the ladies and moving off terra firma to Gordon’s Bay, Team Tork Craft pilot Katy-Ann Marais and co-pilot Carly Saaijman sped to a most impressive tenth overall in the weekend’s Pencil Duck World Championships.
Back on two wheels to the Inland Motocross, Team Tork Craft Husqvarna lad Kabelo Ledwaba romped to 125 cc High School victory, while Tommy Wotherspoon brought his Tork Craft RTR KTM home second. RTR kid James Gibson also ended second in 50 cc Minicross.
“Team Tork Craft enjoyed another great weekend with several wins and podiums across a broad variety of events,” Ride Train Race team principal Tony Riddell concludes. “Well done to every team member on another brilliant job, no matter what the race!”
