Sudbury MCC host last Round of Dave Barkshire Motorcycles 2 Man Eastern Championship

A bright dry autumn morning saw the start of the final round for the Dave Barkshire Motorcycles 2-man Eastern Centre Championship, with several of the top championship places hinging on the days results those racing were making every lap count on the twisty course which threaded through several boggy wooded sections causing major problems for those riders who didn’t get the right line first time. Technical questions in the form of narrow concrete and wooden pallet bridges with a temporary wooden road put in on one stage to save an even bigger bog, constantly had the riders on the brakes and up on their pegs for a tiring 4 hour race. The dark clouds which threatened all afternoon held off till an entertaining presentation ceremony took place signalling an end to the 2021 Dave Barkshire 2 man Eastern Centre Championship.
