2 Day ISDE Ohio Qualifier riding a 2014 GasGas 300 R

[John Maier]

In the Ohio Qualifier over the weekend we rode 120 miles each day, special test ( grass tracks, woods test and a mix of both, the club that put it on did a great job mixing all the terrain. The distance, heat and going all out in the special tests made for it quite challenging.

My Gas Gas ran great and was up for all the challenges. Grass tracks is my most weak test, but the 300 ran clean and powerful, so I only lost a few seconds in these. The woods test is where I'm strong and did well.

I was in a strong class, riders like Cory Buttrick, Shawn Oleary and his brother Jeff from Texas( good on a grass track) and John Kelly (good in tight woods). Cory and John qualified better the me,but I was happy with my ride and how well my Gas Gas performed.

Thanks to the Mike Jolly and his family for putting so much into this event.
