The fourth and final round of the 2012 Peter Stevens South Australian Motocross Championships heads to Murray Bridge this weekend the 4th and 5th of August.
In the Senior classes it is Yamaha Mounted Shane Metcalfe that heads into the final round with a 38 point lead over Damon Hill in second spot with Trent Shaw just one point further back behind Hill in third place.
After a tough start to the series for Metcalfe in round one where he suffered a DNF in the opening moto of the day, he has been unstoppable at the past two rounds winning every moto in the Expert Opens class and heads into the final round as a clear favourite to take the title.
Metcalfe will however have some stiff competition in the final round with Serco Yamaha Metal Mulisha Racing's Kirk Gibbs making a return to the state titles, riding both the Open and Lites class, and if the opening round was any indication, the rest of the field will be looking to see which way Gibbs went when the gate drops for racing at Murray Bridge
Metcalfe and Gibbs will be joined on the line in the Pro Opens by James Booth-Elliot who gave Metcalfe a good run for his money at the previous round at Crystal Brook, while Steve Pontin makes a return to state level MX racing after being sidelined for nearly 12 months after a big crash at the final round of the South Australian Off Road Series in 2011 while battling Ivan Long for the out right title.
Long himself will also line up in the Expert Open class this weekend at Murray Bridge.
