• Epic start to my season today. Felt crap at the start of western league round 5. Was starting to get a feel for my bike when I flatted on a rock 30 min in. Not a great day at the races. Jon looked solid in 3rd. Simon Richardson cruised to the win.

    Good course but many many punctures on those rocks. Felt good for 30 minutes then terrible for 30 minutes. Probably should do some actual training.

  • Training is cheating.

    There was just no way of avoiding the rocks/roots. I basically just went with the technique of going at them as fast I could and trying unweight the bike. It worked....until it didn't
