Brilliant weekend there Lee but I cannot believe you didn’t show or mention the highlight of the whole weekend?!? It was after your win on Saturday when Eurosport went to Matt & the guys to do their summary and Jesse photo bombed their limelight by turning up on his bike and just staying there looking at them. It was hilarious, even they couldn’t keep a straight face! 😆😂😂😂👍👍
