Nick Leerkes about the first Hexis Sandrace
Yesterday the first Hexis Sandrace was held in Loon-Plage with, in addition to Lars van Berkel, also Nick Leerkes. The rider from the Quality MX team makes his debut on the French beach and he looks back on a good but tough race.
The first heat over an hour, the rider from Apeldoorn was in tenth place for a long time. “I had a problem with the chain so I had to slow down. I lost many places because of this and had to settle for 21st place. In the second heat I had another problem in the final phase. I got a flat tire, I tried to finish the moto. This worked, but the tire came off the rim. Fortunately, I was still classified thirteenth, so I was able to end the day satisfactorily."
