WORLD TRIAL GP, KINGMAN ARIZONA

World trial competition came to the U.S. for this weekend’s event in Kingman, Arizona. After overnight rain, the course was feared to be difficult, but eventual winner Toni Bou of the Repsol Honda team considered it one of the easiest competitions of the year. He dominated the event with less than half the points of his nearest competitor, his teammate and fellow Spaniard, Jaime Busto.

Bou: “I’m really happy about how the trial went. It seemed that with last night’s rain it would be a bit more delicate, but soon it got easy. Three points on the first lap are too few. I am very happy with my riding in an easy trial, and it’s a big step forward in the championship because this has been a fantastic weekend. Now we can enjoy a very well-deserved summer break. We’ve had a great season so far in all three of the championships, so now, let’s play hard and enjoy the summer!”
