03 Jan 2015 Kent, WA – As the GP Series goes the weather will play a part for the riders to contend with. Snow, rain, and sunny skies have presented their challenges to the riders. Today it was Fog.
Up and down it went but never lifting and at times the fog was so thick that anything faster than a human can run became zero visibility or what is known as “Whiteout” conditions. Luckily at the time the youngest of the riders were on the track and their slower lap times gave time for the fog to lift by the time they got to that part of the course.
Who knows what Mother Nature will put out for the next series race but whatever it is there are a few riders that the weather seems to have no effect on as one young rider was off his bike and watching the remainder of the race before the second place rider finished. Like I said, he was not affected by the weather. Besides he is a “very skilled” rider and it showed.
This was the last race in the GP Series for the 2014/2015 season; see you when the series starts again.
