South Island Downhill Cup Round 3 (Blenium 21&22/02/09)

Pratice day was interesting, before lunch the track was all wet and mucky, as it a couple of inches deep clay mud stuff. Did three or four runs before lunch before i gave up and decided it would be better to wait till after lunch when it had dried up a bit more.

Before lunch during the shuttles about halfway down the track i had to keep getting off and dragging my bike up a little hill. (I was going to slow for the mud to clear out of my wheels so they both just jammed up, and it made the bike to heavy to lift of the ground more then a cm lol)

After lunch was better, it had dried up a bit, and i gotten sick of having to get off me bike so i kept trying to do the 4wd parts quicker.

Race day was good fun. the track had dried out pretty much completly over night. there wernt any where near as much ruts as i thought there would be. Race and seeding runs were alright, just wish i had gotten up the guts to a couple a of the drops and jumps.

Ended up 5th out of 5, i was happy as i took off about 15 secs off my seeding run.
