Condobolin local Jake Haddrill (Honda) claimed the 2017 Yellow Mountain Cross Country from Scott Saul (Honda) and Zac Thornton (Husqvarna) and, after a string of runner-up finishes in the gruelling 2017 Kamfari event in the Northern Territory, local rider Chris Warwick (Sherco) finally added a winner’s trophy to his cabinet.
