Becky Cook riding her MRS BVM Sherco took second place in the opening round of the Women’s World Championship held in Andorra last weekend.
The sections were in two groups close to the paddock and thunderstorms on the previous days had made the rocks slippery. Becky lost the majority of her marks on the long and technical sections five, six and eight. On the first lap she recorded two threes and her sole five of the trial when she was timed out. At the end of the lap she was lying in third place on seventeen marks, one behind Iris Kramer with Laia Sanz on eight.
Becky improved on the second lap, cleaning the hard parts of sections five and six but still ending up dropping three single dabs in each. She completed the lap for eleven marks moving her up into second position behind Laia, with Iris losing out to Joanne Coles for third place.
The final two rounds are not until September but Becky will be competing in the European Ladies Championship, which resumes this month in Italy and Czech Republic.
