point, and three riders - Fujinami, Raga and Jarvis - were on nine. In the second loop, the sections were more or less the same, not having been changed much by the mud. Raga rode very well and scored only four points, resulting in his second World round victory. Jarvis also had an excellent score, notching six mistakes and securing second place. Lampkin, on the other hand, fived twice and made many smaller mistakes, and his IS-point loop-two score (only the 12th bestl) meant he was off the podium in fourth (and that only thanks to his great first circuit). In third place was Cabestany, and Freixa, Cobos and Fujinami all tied Lampkin's score. . . . . . 4:r1_~ . £ _ b . - I c : . . , .

The competition was much the same for the top riders, however, with numerous cleans being posted. All of Saturday's top finishers proceeded around the loop together, with the exception of Fujinami, who abandoned the group and rode by himself. At the end of first loop, he delivered his card with six points - not bad, but not quite as good as his Japanese countryman Kenichi Kuroyama's five. Before long, however, Cabestany arrived with just one point! Lampkin scored three, and Raga was tied with Kuroyama. Second-best in the loop turned to be Jarvis, who arrived very late. In the second loop, Cabestany quickly lost the lead, fiving section one, while a cool-riding Jarvis gathered many cleans. He repeated his day-one score of two points and won the competition (and two-day overall - his second in a row). The champion was just behind with one point more, and on the third step of podium was Cabestany with eight mistakes in total. Next, on 12 points, were Raga and Fujinami, with the former rider getting the nod based on having more cleans. eN !Z'-m @S#t-·i-j ($4,000.00 per ProAm Class) r_ Oct. 20-21 Blountville, TN 423-323-5497 www.victory-sports.com ~ Kramolioe Wor1d Trials Nepomuk, Czech Republic Resuhs:Sepbnnberl-2 DAY 1: 1.
