Bardney racer Ivan Lintin was racing over two consecutive weekends in Ireland where he scored two top seven finishes in the Athea races before moving on to compete in the Skerries 100 road races where he rode to another two strong finishes. At Athea in the south of Ireland he qualified in second place on the McKinstry Racing 250cc machine and rode through to complete the eight lap affair in third place, breaking the lap record in the process.
Bardney road-racer Ivan Lintin was competing at the Bush Road Races in Ireland at the weekend where he notched up two strong finishes, sixth in the 250cc class and 10th in the open class. On a familiar track Lintin completed his qualifying in the dry to claim a second row start to his 250cc race the following day. But a heavy downpour of rain left the track surface damp and slippery for the start of his six-lap race, making any progress forward a dicey affair. He completed the six laps of the 3.307-mile road course in sixth position.
