The Sidecar pairing of Aaron Lovell and Tracey Bryan run into trouble with brakes and crash out of race two on Saturday during the first round of the NZ National Sidecar championship, held at Ruapuna, Christchurch on the weekend of 10-11th January 2015. Aaron was sore but OK, whilst Tracey suffered some ligament damage to her neck. Thankfully, Tracey will make a full recovery.

Good to see Tracey still smiling :-)

That was the second "big off" of the weekend with the Barry Smith/Robbie Shorter spinning and flipping earlier in the meeting



Two top teams out of the series at the first round, luckily everyone from both crashes is up and mobile although Barry is awaiting surgery on his broken collarbone

No, just two fast teams trying hard and having things turn to custard
