Since achieving his Rally Excellent title in late May Mac and I have been working towards his RAE.
Having missed some opportunities to compete due to my judging of other sports I entered the Triple Rally Trial at Geelong yesterday, hoping we could achieve the 2 pairs of passes for Mac's title.
Despite a nervous start by both of us in the 1st up Excellent run with a couple of retries we still passed with 90 and followed up with 100 in Advanced.
The 2nd trial resulted in Excellent 95 and Advanced 99. These passes earnt Mac his RAE title!!
Thanks to the guidance and teaching of Belinda Osler and training support from Robyn Davis, the whole day was such a contrast to 12 months ago.
As Mac was working well I decided we would still compete in the 3rd trial.
A pair of 96 point passes and 1st place in Advanced finished the day off beautifully.
I was very appreciative of Lindy Gumpold's support throughout the six runs.
It was an awesome way to spend my birthday.
