Bell Rings Out at El Trial de Espana

Shan Moore | August 5, 2002

Canadian Ryon Bell (pictured) captured the win at the El Trial de Espana held at the Donner Ski Ranch near Truckee, California, August 4. The win was especially special for the Montesa rider, who, in the last two years, led the event going into the last section, only to see a pair of sure wins slip away. But not this time.

Bell took the long-awaited and popular win over Gas Gas rider Geoff Aaron, while Wilson Craig, also on a Gas Gas, took third.
