Yep its a weapon. Stepping off the aluminium spartn and onto this thing for Europe. Cannot thank Paul @ rowney sports Australia for organising this bike so quickly. Its all about the weight when hiking for hours with your bike on top of shoulders. Cannot wait to get to Europe.

Mt buller enduro.

Headed off to the Sram Mt Buller Enduro for a bit of fun. Upon flying in on the Thursday i started to feel like some sort of Ebola had taken me and come race day the little legs where spinning with nothing been laid out at all. finishing 26th was a massive disappointment and hit hard. After spending the last 2 weeks in bed from the race due to sickness its hard to come back to. Knowing all the hard work and solid hours had meant nothing due to small flu. bit of bugger but thats racing. getting better slowly now and back on the road bike with some summer cries to look forward to.

Thanks to Jamie Black and FOT for some pics. stoked fellas.

Europe bound yewwwww

Round 1 QLD Sunny Series Ceda Creek.

First round of the Queensland Sunny Series was held up on the Sunshine Coast Ceda Creek Track.

Was definitely good to get out on the big back and back behind the start line as its been a while. 

Practice was running good with getting up to speed quickly on the steep tight track. Missing a gap in practice resulted in my chain device and icg tabs been left behind on a rock.  Some dodgy repairs and we were good to race, 

having a chilled run in qualies and coming it at 5th with a strong bottom section i was pleased. 

Finals time however i washed out in the top section of the track and having to put it all in on the quick 2 minute track and finishing in 5th place with not a hole second dividing up to second then a 3 second gap to first. 

Still a amped to step on the podium for myself and my sponsors.

Massive thanks to Nsdynamics / Cycles Devinci / Sly Collective for keeping me going.
