seven and LeBlond's nine.
"It was a good night of racing,
definitely better than round one,"
Hart said. "It would have been
sweet for the points if Ryder [LeB-
lond] got P2, but Jonny [Walker]
made a couple of passes near
the end and finished second
overall. We got the win, though,
so now it's on to round three!"
For Walker, the evening was a
case of what might have been.
Despite winning the second moto
and showing race-winning speed
throughout the night, two crashes
in the matrix ultimately cost him a
second consecutive overall victory.
"Solid night in Idaho, riding
and speed was good but two
silly crashes in the matrix while
leading cost me," Walker said.
"Roll on to next week in Everett."
LeBlond, meanwhile, contin-
ued his strong start to the cham-
pionship with another podium
finish, keeping himself firmly in
the title hunt.
"Another awesome weekend
of EnduroCross racing," LeBlond
said, as he gets closer to his first
overall win. "Super happy with
my riding this year! Gotta keep it
going and stay in it at each race,
it's only a matter of time."
Webb showed flashes of his
former championship-winning
form, particularly with his third-
place finish in the second moto,
but a difficult final moto, where
he finished 12th, dropped him to
seventh overall.
Despite surrendering the over-
all victory to Hart, Walker leaves
Idaho still holding the champi-
onship lead with 47 points, five
ahead of LeBlond's 42. Hart's vic-
tory moves him up four positions
