There’s no rest for the wicked and that must make Darryll King avery bad person indeed. The 37-year-old is fresh from finishing
on the podium at the opening round of the Australian Motocross
Championships near Melbourne last week, but now, instead of
racing across the Tasman, he’s staying close to home. Instead of
pushing on and improving his ranking in Australia, he’s racing the
New Zealand Otorohonda, King Country Honda, Honda First
Taumaranui Four-stroke Motocross Championships near
Otorohanga in the King Country this weekend, a two-day meeting
that will probably feature at least 10 outings for the two-time
former world No.2. King (Yamaha), who is current New Zealand
500cc and 250cc champion, is one of the favourites to win this
weekend in both the open class and the veteran’s 35-39 years’
class. “It will be a lot of fun,” said the Hamilton man. “I’d rather
be racing in Tasmania (at round two of the Australian champs),
particularly after having such a good weekend last weekend, but
my priority these days is waving the Yamaha flag in New
Zealand. “I’m building up now towards the nationals and the
more races I can do now the better, especially at my age.”
