Conrad Mewse took a decisive victory at Britain’s toughest off-road race, the Weston Beach Race on Sunday – the first win at the event for the 25-year-old and also for the Crendon FASTRACK Honda team.
On a punishing, deeply rutted course on the beach at Weston-Super-Mare in Somerset, Mewse was in a class of his own as he picked his way through the man-made sand dunes and muddy holes, along the 2km-long straight and past 649 other racers.
The CRF450R ever missed a beat as Mewse rode with precision and skill to win by more than 3mins from second place rider, Weston regular Ashley Greedy. Mewse and Greedy were the only riders to compete 21 laps, with Mewse’s best lap time of 8mins 33secs comparing to Greedy’s best of 8mins 45secs. They were the only two riders to break the 9min lap time mark around the course, although third fastest was former AMA champion Justin Barcia on 9mins 1sec.
