Random lately





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.

Training tools turned race weapons




With all the road riding that has been going on lately to build up the fitness before jetting back to Europe in the months to come we have started dabbing in the local Road Racing. A very new style of riding and one that keeps your nerves on edge. Starting off in C grade you have to bring in all your riding skills from all disciplines to make sure u make it out alive. Roadies maybe strong and can pedal in straight lines but add some corners and 59 other people to the mix and you have a lot of people buzzing wheels, flipping and sliding around whilst pushing along at 40 to 50k.

Just gotta use them as solid training rides and a bit of fun on the bike. Keen to definitely keep on pushing on the roadie until its time to play in the alps.







happy to take 2nd
leading the pack. staying out of trouble.

Keeping the strength going.

After returning back to Australia after a epic adventure in Europe I had to keep up the strength and fitness. There was no way I was letting what I have achieved abroad slip away with the lack of climbing and riding on offer in my local area. With this weapon now added to the program I have never been this excited for the up coming season in Australia before heading back to Europe in spring.

Chatel France to Germany To LAKE GARDA :)


Jumped on a train to Chatel- Frtance with some Austrian lads for a weeks worth of riding. definitely a rad place to be but i was bummed could only take one bike so the trail bike stayed at home and this was my downfall. so many valleys to explore. But had to just stick to the bike park setup.



Made it to Chatel

Chatel lines


Some random pics of some hikes and hangs in Germany before we head off again.







WHATS UP LAKE GARDA

Here we are hanging out in the Italian Alps at Lake Garda.
This place is a mountain bikers dream. Endless trails and scenery to help with the crazy amounts of climbing that has to be done for the well deserved epic single track trails taking you on some on fade and WW1 trails. This place is a must do for all riders.

There is a lot of Shuttle services in town so the dreeded climbing is only for those who choose.







This view is worth the climb
