On The Pegs Vol. 4 Issue 9 - September 2019 95 WADE YOUNG Wade Young battled with fellow Sherco rider Mario Roman for the runner-up postition, holding his teammate at bay until three laps to go. “Mario and I had quite a good battle going. He was riding good and I didn’t realize he was quite a bit quicker than me. We were battling back and forth and I could feel that I pulled a gap, and then he would close me in. I think it would have been nice maybe if I knew what the outcome would be at the end to have let him go and so he could maybe battle for first place. But at the end of the day, I’m also racing. I gave it everything to try and stay in second but I just got tired towards the end and dropped to third.”
