40 in grass track event

By Douglas Mazune OVER 40 riders will take part in the second round of the 2001 grass track motorcycle championship at Wankulukuku tomorrow. Uganda Motorcycle Sports Association general secretary Godfrey Katende, said the event was shifted from Masaka due to lack of sponsorship. “We had no choice but to go to Wankulukuku again,” Katende said. Riders from Entebbe, Southern, YORAC, Tiger and Speedway motorcycle clubs will face off in the junior, senior and expert categories. With Arthur Blick absent, Wycliff Bukenya (Suzuki 250cc), Abed Lubambula and Derrick Sserunjogi are the men to watch. Bukenya who embarrassingly fell to Sserunjogi in the opening round on the same track hopes to tame his tormentor now that he has acquired a new Suzuki. “I will definitely beat Sserunjogi this time, I was just unlucky last time,” Bukenya said.
