Day 2 - Tuesday

All the team have finished the second day of the ISDE. St George's MCC Team are now in 17th place overall, which is a fantastic result from a total of 91 club teams competing.


James Jackman had a " full on maintenance day" boiling the back brake in the first enduro test it needed bleeding, following that he changed a clutch at the service point, a spoke had to be cut out, finally he finished the day with a front and back tyre change and fixed the spoke.


Julian had another good day apart from crashing twice in the first enduro test.


James had an enjoyable day with the bike running well. James was on the same minute as an American today, after every check James 'high fived' with the American shouting "Another one down man!!"


Day's 1 & 2 terrain was mostly deep sand and it's taken it's toll on clutches on all machines. For Day 3 & 4 there's a change in terrain presenting a new challenge to riders and machines and alike.


These pictures show some action from today at a service check and tyre changing in the final fifteen minutes work period at the end of the day.
