1hr Report – SIERDC Ruapuna 1️⃣
We return to The South with our pair of MRs for a second year, and in 2023 the competition has certainly lifted its game.
Admittedly, we were caught off guard by this and on the back foot for most of the weekend, but like any good and unified team we relish the challenge to improve and are working hard on turning up for Round 2 in Invercargill with a stronger performance from both the #909 and the #910.
Mana recovered from being turned around early to finish in 7th, while the result for Francois was P16 after a couple of incidents throughout the race.
