Yea great race. Congrats to everybody on racing a super tough course with lots of mud, singletrack climbs and tricky drops. Roll on the NPS for more slogfest and fun.

[Rudolf]

great race. Track dried up nicely during the last 2 laps. every body did realy well that was a hard course. the tea from Joy after the race was perfect and got the sugar levels back up. next week NPS rnd 1.

Aisling Runamuck Foley would've loved it. Bing that shiny bike of yours bike to Slade Valley next week and I guarantee you'll win something!

for practice during the week strap a couple of extra kgs onto your bike (to simulate the attached mud) find a very muddy steep hill and run up it as fast as you can. repeat until exhaustion. then think about how nice it would be to do it x 3.

seriously though, the forecast is good for next weekend the course is supposed to be great and DC is right you could even get on the podium. not that we're competitive or anything.
