Hi everyone, The team and I have travelled once again out to Holland for the second round of the Dutch International Championship in Rhenen. It was a holiday for the Dutch and that is why it was run on a Thursday. It was the first time that I had been to the track and it looked fun. When we got there in the morning it was raining. The track was a little sloppy but would soon go.

In time training I felt good. I learnt the track fast and was having fun. I set fastest lap time and went to the line first.
I got a good jump but soon got swallowed up. I then forced my way down the inside. By the second turn I was in second behind Jeffery Herlings. On the second lap I got passed him on one of the drop downs. I eventually pulled out a comfortable lead and sat safe.
In the second moto I didn’t get such a good start and was back in 5th. I moved through fast and then found my self in a replay of the last race. The only difference was that the track was rougher and more fun.
With a brilliant overall and now only 2 points separate me from Jeffery in the points lead. With that bike problem in rd 1 I had a bit of work to do.
