Beach Cross Berck: GP toppers vs beach specialists
Autumn is the perfect time for motocross riders to relax after a long season. And so the Beach Cross in Berck sur Mer in Northern France has been on the calendar of a number of GP toppers for some time. Stefan Everts, Steve Ramon, Ken De Dycker, Tanel Leok and Xavier Boog will settle down on the Côte Opale this weekend. In a competition format of two heats and a final, they will compete against the specialists of French beach racing, such as Adrien Van Beveren, Milko Potisek, Gautier Leclabart, Jean-Claude Moussé and Arnaud Demeester. In addition to these French toppers, we also find the names of Ricky Claus and former Dutch 125cc champion Ton van Grinsven. For them, this is a test in the run-up to the Trophée des Sables, the French beach racing championship that culminates at the end of January with the Enduropale du Toucquet. In the MX2 class the line-up is a lot less strong.
This will be Tanel Leok's first competition at the TM. And the Beach Cross is also a benchmark for Ken De Dycker on the LS Motors Honda. For Stefan Everts fans, it is one of the few moments in a year when they can see “The Legend” at work again.
