The FASTLANE MCC promoted Moato Circus 2016 was the biggest and best yet . Fine weather and a carnival atmosphere made the weekend enjoyable and put the F ( Fun) factor back in spades . Held to raise funds for Wayne Garrett ( #33) , injured some 4 weeks ago, the event was overshadowed by the sad passing of DANO Sheridan ( 13) a youth rider following a freak accident last Thursday . Whatever the reason , the riders came , the spectators came and none seemed disappointed . The Long Cross on Saturday provided 3 races of 45/ 60 / 45 minutes and 30/ 30 for the youths and every class was full to bursting with the country’s fastest MX riders pitting themselves against the fastest Enduro riders . The MX won , with Richard Bird taking the honours . Full results report later .

The “ Oval cross “ , a tight 15 second lap with 2 obstacles had the large crowd on their toes for the entire qualification / final and what a final and excitement there was , the spoils finally going to Belfast’s Jordan Scott from Corks Aidan MC Donagh but only after a stall by Jim O’Neill and a hand stand over the final logs by Stuart Edmonds . It was anyone’s final to win and congratulations to the four riders for putting on such a good show . It worked .
