Graham Jarvis extends his lead in the Red Bull Romaniacs to over 30 minutes with just one day to go…

A big crash costs a charging Chris Birch dearly on day three of the Red Bull Romaniacs which allows event leader Graham Jarvis to pull further clear in the overall classification. “I had a great day,” says Grimbo. “I was feeling a bit stiff in the morning but once I woke up, I really found the flow. Navigation was much easier than yesterday but I still missed a few turns after not watching my GPS. I definitely enjoyed the beautiful ride today! There were 30 minutes of extreme challenges this morning but after that the track allowed a fast pace again.”

Behind the leading pair not much changes as Letti and Gallindo post similar times which see them separated by just 15 minutes with one day of competition left to run. Bolts has a bit of a nightmare on day three and loses over an hour to the leaders. A solid fourth day should see the Lancastrian truck mechanic tie up fifth place overall on the Eurotek KTM. Tune in tomorrow for the final results…
