Ah, that's a shame. Looks like I'll only be able to make two more races of this season then.
I raced yesterday too, the last few courses have suited me a little better than Footscray but for the first time I was gridded. However I managed to slide out on the first muddy section, effectively taking me back to my normal rearwards positioning. Seemed to be making up time on the uphill singletrack and in the mud then losing it again on the bumpy flats where more power was needed. Finished with what is becoming my standard positioning, just outside the top 10.
Intend to take next season a little more seriously and race for points. Maybe I'll finally invest in a tubular wheelset too.
