Graham Jarvis won both the expert class races using his amazing bike skills to master the tricky woods. the Biffstar with a 3rd in the first leg and a fine second place in the 2nd leg gave him the overall second place, Luke Lusher returning to form was 3rd Niki Walker won the clubman with 2 wins, while Karl Greenall won the over 40s from Ian Shannon and Rob Butler who tied on points for second place the decider of the fastest lap swung the result in Ian's favour.

Once again the Dirtbike-traxs team provided the riders with an interesting track at the compact Butts venue, using the mx track surrounding woodland and the quarry. After grading the track on Saturday it was in prime condition to receive the full house entry. The Sunday kicked of with a youth hare scramble with over 50 youth and ladies riders taking part on an easier course. The race got under way at 9 am. The weather conditions were perfect with sunshine breaking through the light cloud cover and having rained through the night the track was damp, just enough to keep the dust at bay. With the race duration set at 90 minutes the leading pack set off around the quarry. As the race settled down over the first few laps Robert Johnson emerged in front of the senior B youth [12 to 14 years] a position he has occupied all year with Scott Altass, Luke Flack and Davey Todd all trying hard to catch the flying Johnson. Although Davey Todd set the fastest lap of the day in the race, Robert Johnson won by a lap from Luke Flack with Davey Todd third.

The ladies class which is steadily growing in popularity was dominated by Jane Daniels with a clear 2 lap winning margin over Deborah Kerr second and Gina Bewlay third. As soon as all the youth riders were off the track the hard working Dirtbike-traxs team set about the course changes for the main adult race off the day including the challenging uphill rocky climb to the top of the woods. With a good line up of expert riders including the new Sandiford Husqvarna team with martin Sandiford on the awesome Husqvarna WR250 and the Biffster on the TE250 there was going to be 2.5 hours of serious hare scramble action ahead of the riders.

First back was Dave Wood closely followed by husky mounted Mark Houson fresh from his excellent result in the welsh earlier on in the week. In third place was the Biffster on the husky TE 250, after 4 laps the smooth looking Martin Sandiford on the WR250 husky hit the front with Dave Wood chasing hard. By lap 10 Harry Hillas after a poor start had worked his way in to third pressuring wood and eventually passing him on lap 12, Hillas was now flying setting equal fastest lap of the day.

The weather matched the outstanding course with clear blue skies and warm sunshine.
At 11.45 am 60 more riders joined in the Ellington fun as the practice session started, It was great to see dads taking there young offspring out on the track to gain valuable off road experience in a controlled environment.

Last weekend saw the final round of the Putoline Hare Scramble Championship take place At Gisburn Lancashire. What unfolded was a festival of Off Road Motorcycle activity. The track had been reworked by the hard working Dirtbike Traxs crew, to provide a more challenging route than normal. Back in 'the woods' along with an interesting extreme section, which comprised of 50 metres of Bog followed by a sharp right turn up a steep valley side. If this section was cleaned it would save as much as 50 seconds per lap over the standard route. The weekend started on Saturday with a Wayne Braybrook Training Day assisted by Daddy Wilson. As usual the day went well, with all the riders expressing there thanks for a great day. With the entry confirmed at over 380 riders. This made the Putoline Hare Scramble the best supported Hare Scramble Championship in the UK. A great achievement for the Dirtbike Traxs crew and TGOR who have worked so hard to provide quality events. With a lot hanging on this final round, in most of the classes the days sport was going to be hard fought. In the prestigious E2 Expert Class was Justin the Daddy Wilson still recovering from his Driffield injuries. With a narrow 1 point lead over KB Gas Gas mounted Lincoln Brewster. 8:30am saw the large youth entry take to the famous Gisburn Course in a 75 min race on a shorter course. Josh Bendall took up an early lead in the 12-15year group from Harry Hillas hot on his heels. Disaster struck Harry mid way , when his back brake overheated and forced his retirement. Gary Daniels now up to second place, was unable to make any impression on Josh Bendall who by now was on a mission. Rob Dawson had made progress to third place. These positions where maintained until the finish with Josh Bendall laping the entire class. In the 8-11yrs class Davey Todd was first back to lap scoring followed by Scott Altass, Ayrton Aldridge and Luke Flack. But as hard as these riders raced they could not catch the impressive Davey Todd who won the class comfortably by a massive two laps from Scott in Second and Ayrton in Third. With a full 175 sportsman riders on the start and the option to tackle the extreme section the sportsman pack headed off around the course towards the famous Barnes banks where a large crowd had gathered, as the leaders came onto the banks the fun started with many of the sportsman riders struggling, as we reached the half way point in the race Craig Reynolds started to push the lead passing Tom Edwards and Anthony Cooper, only a few sportsman riders chose the extreme route most opted for the safer route, as the two hours thirty minute approached Craig Reynolds had built up a thirty second lead over Tom Edwards who was one minute twenty one seconds ahead of a tiring Anthony Cooper all completing twelve laps just to let every body know that sportsman rider Lee Stanley is okay after being air lifted to hospital.
Its been a great championship said organizer John Kerwin thanks to all the riders that supported us and Rob Sheldon at Putoline oil, M.R.S Sherco, in one season to end up the best supported hare scramble series was more than TGOR and DBT could have imagined at the start of the season., 2007 Putoline Oils National Hare Scramble Championship 2006 Championship Standings Adults Kids Reports
