The Yamaha 2014 Australian Four-Day Enduro (A4DE) completed the penultimate day three today and CDR Yamaha’s Daniel Milner holds the overall lead heading in to the fourth and final day.

Milner’s holding off the ever-persistent Toby Price (KTM), who is just under a minute behind after racing to the fastest overall time on Friday.

Chris Hollis (CDR Yamaha), Josh Strang (Yamaha) and Lachlan Stanford (Husqvarna) continue to battle it out for the final podium spot in both the overall and E2 standings.

Beau Ralston (Active8 Yamaha) in his first ever A4DE is sitting just outside the top five overall by just over one minute.

Teammate Tom McCormack (Active8 Yamaha) enjoys a good lead in the E3 class over Peter Boyle (KTM), who is hanging on to a slender four-second lead over American import Mike Brown (Husqvarna).

Team manager Glenn Kearney (Husqvarna) also holds on to his E1 lead despite Daniel Sanders (KTM) being just five seconds behind on day three – there is still a minute-long gap between the pair.

Meanwhile in the Womens class there is just three seconds separating the top three spots; it’s looking like it will come down to Saturdays final moto. Jess Gardiner (Ballards Off-Road) is one second in front of Tayla Jones (KTM), who in turn is a second ahead of Emelie Karlsson (Yamaha).

The riders completed the day by walking tomorrow’s final moto in preparation for the A4DE grand finale.

Spectators are encouraged to come down and enjoy the spectacular final moto held right next to Parc Ferme at Riverwood Downs. Kids get free entry, with Adult tickets available for $10.
