city trials Posted February 24, 2008 Report Share Posted February 24, 2008 That's 0 for 2 against Laia. 11th place for Pat in Spain today. I'd figured by age and cc size, he would've been in the junior class. Not Zona 2. Results. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel dabster Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 That's 0 for 2 against Laia. 11th place for Pat in Spain today. I'd figured by age and cc size, he would've been in the junior class. Not Zona 2. Results. I wouldn't read too much into results like that he is only a few off laia and there is always some big stuff which will give the bigger bikes an advantage, couple of 5's here and there soon add up. More important he is over here riding. Still on Sherco for 08 then? See Alfredo is doing the top route on montesa. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still on Sherco for 08 then? Yes, Nigel, Pat will be contesting the '08 season aboard Sherco. And, I do worry we've thrown him to the wolves. Too many 'out of the top 10' placements may damage his confidence? I've heard way too many horror stories about our riders going to Spain and mentally losing it. We'll see how he bounces back from this. I know you'll (Pat) be reading this - So all I can say is, Pat, you got schooled yesterday. There will be days like that. Keep your head in the game.

northernnorm Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 Wow if the results for that event fortell this years battle in the 125 youth class; where 6 riders who appear on the 08 roster all scored within 10 ponts of each other you can bet the 08 championship will be far from boring ,will any of those kids be able to break away and dominate like Gomez did last year??

brian r Posted February 25, 2008 Report Share Posted February 25, 2008 Looks like he tied for 10th but got beat on cleans? Also, one two fives away from 5th. First event jitters is all. He'll be in the thick of it soon! Go Pat! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biffsgasgas Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 Great Job Pat! I feel fortunate to see you riding at such a high level in such a short time. It will be tough but we are behind you over here. I know its just craig's speculation that you will be upset about this but you royally kick a$$. Nice job. --Biff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copemech Posted February 26, 2008 Report Share Posted February 26, 2008 No prob, Pat's on the 125! Just because you get beat by a girl on a factory Mont that cannot hop is no problem at all! He will be fine! Just be cool and do your thing Pat, everything is ok! GO RIDE! And stop listening to Craig! SHUT UP! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
