so I kind of just rode for third . On Sunday , I started out really strong all the way until the second Enduro test , where I had another crash . Me and Lyndon were swapping back and forth from second and third . It was a good weekend all in all , but I ’ m still learning these things . It takes time to get that speed in the woods and being consistent . But it ’ s going up from here .”
