Australasian Supercross – Reed finds it hard to stay on two wheels
The battle for third ended up being between the King of Supercross Jeremy McGrath and the current AMA supercross champion Chad Reed. McGrath looked confident at the start but dropped back soon after. By this stage MC had given up on the triple and was no where near Reed after the first couple of turns.

There are no markings on the cover plate to identify the orientation. After a closer inspection the three [...]
