On The Pegs 106
JAMES DABILL
Bristow hasn ’ t been beaten since the final round of the 2017 championship and is now firmly in the driving seat as she lines up a seventh consecutive TrialGP Women crown but it was close today .
A clear seven marks ahead of Sandra Gomez ( TRRS ) after the first lap , she allowed her Spanish rival to reel her in and by close of play was only four in front as the leading pair comfortably out-performed Berta Abellan ( Vertigo ) who finished a distant third .
“ I didn ’ t ride my best today but I managed to pull the result out ,” said
Bristow . “ When you can win on a bad day that ’ s pretty good . It was just one bad five that made it tight and more stressful than it should have been . I ’ m happy – I ’ m disappointed with my riding today but it ’ s good for the championship .”
