Craig Bounds took on the xchallenge of tackling something considerably bigger than his usual yz250 in this year's Baja GB. Craig (pictured left at Sweet Lamb) was riding in the 3rd round of the 2007 FIA International Cup of Cross Country Bajas on a BMW 650 XChallenge sponsored by Clarks BMW Bikes of Birmingham . Competing against some of the country's most experienced enduro/rally rider, he did extremely well to finish on the podium in 3rd overall. 35 year old Craig from Edwardsville works for Bob Wildings motorcycles in Merthyr Tydfil. He has been riding at the top level in enduros for over 15 years & he is currently in great form with a 4th overall Expert finish in the Crychan British Enduro Championship round on the previous weekend. "Riding the BMW was a great experience. It has given me a real boost towards my ultimate aim of riding in the Dakar. I would like to thank Daniel of Clarks BMW Bikes & Nick Plumb of Touratech for all their help " Photo: Dickon Siddall |
