Who will ever defeat him on Namibian soil? I am talking about the young Moto Cross rider from Botswana: Ross Branch. Ross feels right at home in Namibia and he once again showed that during the 3rd Wesbank- Championships race over the long Easter-weekend in Swakopmund. He loves fast racing, flying over table tops, turning his Kawasaki sideways in a "Whip" and then landing securely and continuing the wild chase across the race track at the salt fields. On two occasions he had to fight from way back to the head of the pack but it didn't hinder him from collecting three heat victories and the maximum number of points at the end of the day.
