February 24, 200818 yr That's 0 for 2 against Laia. 11th place for Pat in Spain today. I'd figured by age and cc size, he would've been in the junior class. Not Zona 2. Results.

I wouldn't read too much into results like that he is only a few off laia and there is always some big stuff which will give the bigger bikes an advantage, couple of 5's here and there soon add up. More important he is over here riding. Still on Sherco for 08 then? See Alfredo is doing the top route on montesa.

Still on Sherco for 08 then? Yes, Nigel, Pat will be contesting the '08 season aboard Sherco. And, I do worry we've thrown him to the wolves. Too many 'out of the top 10' placements may damage his confidence? I've heard way too many horror stories about our riders going to Spain and mentally losing it. We'll see how he bounces back from this. I know you'll (Pat) be reading this - So all I can say is, Pat, you got schooled yesterday. There will be days like that. Keep your head in the game.

February 25, 200818 yr Wow if the results for that event fortell this years battle in the 125 youth class; where 6 riders who appear on the 08 roster all scored within 10 ponts of each other you can bet the 08 championship will be far from boring ,will any of those kids be able to break away and dominate like Gomez did last year??
February 25, 200818 yr Looks like he tied for 10th but got beat on cleans? Also, one two fives away from 5th. First event jitters is all. He'll be in the thick of it soon! Go Pat!

Closer than that noel(?) there is a couple of uk based riders and french and italian to add to the mix, no one will do a "gomez" i feel.
February 26, 200818 yr Great Job Pat! I feel fortunate to see you riding at such a high level in such a short time. It will be tough but we are behind you over here. I know its just craig's speculation that you will be upset about this but you royally kick a$$. Nice job. --Biff
February 26, 200818 yr No prob, Pat's on the 125! Just because you get beat by a girl on a factory Mont that cannot hop is no problem at all! He will be fine! Just be cool and do your thing Pat, everything is ok! GO RIDE! And stop listening to Craig! SHUT UP!
