The Husqvarna Racing Team arrived in Vryburg fired up for Round 3 of the National Cross Country Championship, ready to take on the dry and dusty conditions. Davin Cocker opened the track from first in the Open Class, while teammate Luke Walker lined up in second for the OR3 Class, both set to chase top results.
Cocker delivered a superb ride, powering through the conditions to claim the overall win of the day as well as victory in the Open Class. Reflecting on his result, he shared,
“It was a really good day out in Vryburg. The dust made things tough at times, but I felt strong on the bike and was able to keep a solid pace until the end. Huge thanks to the team for all their support, it’s awesome to bring home the win.”
Walker also impressed with a steady and competitive ride, finishing second in the OR3 Class and sixth overall. He said, “I’m happy with how the race went. The pace was fast and the track kept us on our toes, but I managed to stay consistent and bring home a solid result. I’m looking forward to building on this heading into Round 4.”
Team Manager Megan Prinsloo was full of praise for the riders, “It was a fantastic weekend for Husqvarna Racing. Davin was outstanding from the front, and Luke rode a really strong race in tough conditions. Both riders showed great composure and delivered results that the whole team can be proud of. We’re excited to carry this form into the next round in Lesotho.”
The championship continues out of the country, with Maseru, Lesotho, set to host the next round.
