Sunday morning saw a mandatory 8am rider’s
meeting, against the backdrop of a beautiful sunrise, and then it was time to
get going!
We knew we’d be queuing a lot, however, the
Bonneville system is efficient and you can get set up at the mile one start
point, with a support vehicle and all your kit, plenty of shade, water and
company and wait your turn.
The first day of racing was definitely a ‘shakedown’
for Team Wildcard. Both guys took a
couple of runs and got to know the system, the course and the salt.
