Alan Honeybone - 2

            While Christchurch was covered in fog it was an unexpected start to our day to be standing in sunshine at Glenelg Spur on the Port Hills ready for the start of this month’s Pioneer Trial. 27 keen starters across all grades with numbers boosted by Brian Spedding from Dunedin, Patrick Dillon from Nelson, and our regular long-distance travellers, Alex Roberton from Blenheim, and Stephen Reij from Motueka. A few other new riders which is always good to see, and a number of spectators, no doubt helped by the event being so close to Christchurch. Briefing done and we headed away for 3 laps of the 12 sections. After being used for so many years the tricky section by the water tank was not used as some work is happening on the farm. We still used the old quarry and the top gully in the trees, with new sections added further around the hill. I managed the wooden spoon in my grade but the sections were good, so thanks to the team who set them the day before. The weather turned south west and cloud increased as the day progressed, but the weather stayed fine, although colder. Thanks to everyone who helped with the event, section setting, officials, and those who pulled sections, plus Lynette who was out with the camera.
