after a successful weekend at world marathon champs and an exciting monday racing around the nurburgring in karl platts porche gt3 i headed home for 12 days of recharging.i got home pretty spent so it was quite easy for me to spend three days of the bike.i spent most of that tiem getting stuff at home sorted and house hunting.after loads of searching i found what i was looking for.i cant wait to move in!
heres what i found,i could get used to that view...


on saturday i caught the bundu bashers club ride which was loads of fun as always and spent some time at the shop after setting up my new specialized chainguide.im running it with a 40 tooth rotor ring on the front and so far its performed perfectly.



on sunday i got to race on of my favourites,the singletrack fest that is that is the cowan house classic in hilton.this year was realy tough though.loads of climbing and deep sand meant that the riders would have to earn their finish in the 40km event.i felt good after some good rest and managed to move clear of brandon stewardt(dcm) on the first long climb.i built up a good lead but had to stop to reinflate my rearwheel as i had a torn valve.i managed to catch up again and then stayed smooth all the way to the finish.craig paul finished in third.



this week ill do some proper training before heading off to the usa on saturday.im realy excited and the form seems to be good.



happy trails
