Published Sun 29 Jan 2017
NSW Institute of Sport SBX rider Adam Lambert has finished with the Gold medal at the Grasgehren Europa Cup SBX Event in Germany. Lambert's victory is the third in what has been a hat trick of victories at the Europa Cup level this season.
Lambert qualified 8th on a tight and shortend course, in warm snow conditions. Riding well though some tough heats, Lambert overcame 4 lead changes in the top section of the Big Final before clearing away in the bottom half and taking the Gold. Lambert's victory was made even more impressive having been from a tough starting field of 84 athletes.
Lambert's team mates Georgia Crisp and Christina Taylor finished in 29th and 31st places respectively
Racing continues tomorrow for the second event of the double header.
