QUOTES
RACER – Kristy Gillespie
“I am really pleased with my results at round one of the titles and my aim is to just keep consistent for the next few rounds of series and bring home another number one plate,” said Gillespie.
TEAM MANAGER – Glenn Macdonald
“Kristy rode with a smart head at Shepparton during Saturday’s racing,” said Macdonald. “The track became extremely rough toward the end of the day and she rode safe to bring home the win.
This is a great start to Kristy’s campaign to win her fifth consecutive state title.
Kristy also contested the B grade Lites (Expert) on Sunday’s program and rode exceptionally well. The class was stacked, with two heats required due to rider numbers. Kristy pulled some excellent starts from a full gate of riders and defiantly held her own against the guys.”
