August – 22nd Welsh ISDE Training Day
Decided to go up to Wales early and train with the Welsh squad before the Elite Sprint on Sunday at Rhyader. Had the biggest off to date, busted up the bike, had massive concussion, woke up Sunday PM, don’t remember much. So ended up watching the Elite Sprint instead 
August – 15th/16th Slovakia UEM
Mammoth drive for two days, couldn’t believe the area was so third world! Weekend started bad with U23 mate Brad King breaking two virtibrae in Fridays practice session. Friday night briefing we were told not to follow any instructions in the woods etc by persons unless they were wearing an offical UEM jacket, as you will be robbed and maybe even raped!! They were not wrong either. People everywhere, some with no shoes on! Arrows missing everywhere. Me and Ashley Wood got lost, they scrapped the check at the end, but by now all our tests went to shit as we were 3 quaters of an hour behind other riders who were alot slower than us. Finished 16th. Day 2 was a better day as they brought out the armed guards!! Had good tests, finished 8th , my best result so far 
August – 9th Idless South West Round
On a high from Dyfi and wanted to do well at the local. Phil lead for a bit but knee was still hurting from an accident in Dyfi. Battled him up until the pit stop and then he retired. I spent the rest of the race keeping my distance from Dustow, the series leader. Finished 1st by a couple of minutes. Great track, chuffed with ride as it was on Phils 450 big bang!
August – 1st/2nd 3rd BEC Dyfi
Day 1 - still pissing razor blades, had awful urine infection, but number 1 plate ment i had to push on. Lost a minute on the tight check but my times on the test were awesome, finished 13th overall, 2nd E3.
Day 2 – Felt better after swapping antibiotics over night, brilliant day, stayed clean on going with great test times. Finished 9th overall, 1st E3 … my best result in BEC yet!
July – 19th Pendennis 4 hour H & H
Iron man or Two man team? Late entry so decided to go it alone. Tight track and very physical, rain made it hellish slippery. Won iron man by 5 laps!!!!!
July – 11th/12th 2nd BEC Knighton
Good week before, training in Wales with Phil and Ashley Wood. The grassy practising proved invaluable. Stayed clean on the going, finished 12th on day one and 11th on day two, but took the E3 win on both days!
June – 28th Motox Truro
Decided Saturday night after riding home from the Welsh that i wanted to ride the motox. Frantic clean up of bikes and kit. Off we went sunday. Three races, finished 3rd overall
June – 25th/26th Welsh Two Day
Looking forward to it as it was a Six Days selection round, so got stuck in with some good test times on both days. Lost one minute on tight check but finished 2nd E3.
June – 21st ORE Exmoor
Rode Phils 450, loved it! . Lead from start, rode last hour with no gear change, stuck in tree somewhere! Bike struggled in 4th gear, don’t think clutch was too pleased, don’t think Phil will be either !! Stayed in front and took the win!
