The Race

His heart was pounding as they flew over the crest of the hill. He could taste the gritty dirt that had blown underneath his helmet, and the trickle of sweat that poured down in his neck. The roar of the engines filled his ears, and he fixed his eyes on the next jump; this was his chance to shine…

Flying down the hill swooping into the biggest rut on the track. Feeling the air and dirt spray past him as his bike takes flight into the naked air. Engulfing himself in air, tasting fresh like a morning glass of water. “This is the worlds biggest jump!” He thought. Flying like a bird for at-least 7 seconds. He sees the whoop section coming up as he takes a quick glance ahead at the track. Skimming over the whoops as fast as a bullet. Up and down, up and down. His hand slips off and he starts to wobble, saving the crash and continuing through the ruts. Petrol fumes gliding swiftly into his nose, making him more anxious to get to 1st place. Making one pass around the berm, taking the inside.

Leaving #247 in his wake. #199 needs to make one more pass to steal the win from #44. Coming round the corner like a rat up a drain pipe, accelerating ferociously. Heading towards the finish line was the finishing flag trembling. Seeing the flag reminds #199 to really rattle his dags to make the one last pass before the final flag. Luckily for #199, #44 makes a mistake and tumbles over the handle bars, rolling and turning into a mud ball. Shooting over the finish flag was #199 with the rev limiter going full noise and the winning whip of glory widening the spectators eyes. The cheers and motorbike noises echoed the through the town. Getting plate #1 to finish the season off was a great achievement from #199. Going off like a cut snake on the podium. Champagne glistening in the daylight and free falling onto the spectators. After everything going well for the winner #199 he hops in his tour bus with his parents and sponsors. Beers and champaign were getting passed around to celebrate the win. The miracle of a day take a turn for the worst when the bus driver has fallen asleep at the wheel and lead to the bus to drift off the road. Before the sponsors, rider and parents knew it they were in a life and death situation. Everyone has been knocked unconscious and the rider was the only one awake.
