ENGLAND ARE TOP NATION AT FARLEIGH!

September 5th & 6th 2009 FARLEIGH CASTLE hosted its biggest event for more than 20 years as the Veterans / Twinshock Motocross Des Nations took place at the track. Sponsored by CCM Motorcycles of Bolton, more than 400 riders including four former world champions took part in the weekend of racing.

The format was a team event, with countries sending four riders to compete against each other on historic Twinshock bikes. Thirteen teams from around the world attended, with riders from South Africa, Portugal, Italy, Germany, Belgium, Ireland, France, Holland and Sweden.

The team event was won by the English team, comprising of ex-world champion Graham Noyce, ex-GP riders Pete Mathia and Neil Prince and Dorset rider Terry House, who was presented with the rider of the meeting award. France finished a distant second with a North of England team third and pre-event favourites Geboers (Belgium) fourth.

Three-time 500cc world champion Dave Thorpe made a rare apperance at Farleigh on his 20-year-old works Honda RC500, celebrating his win at Farleigh in 1989. He was accompanied by three-time Belgian world champion Andre Malherbe.
