Fuzzy eyes.....
Well this was one full on 24hr race!!!!!
I had the joy of the mad dash to the bikes then the race was on. We managed to get a really clean start and i was in a good position for the first lap. everyone jockeyed for positions for the early part of the lap then it settled to a really nice rythmn for the rest of the lap. I must say the down hill run home was worth the climb. I was buzzing at the end of the lap.
The funny part about this race is I only once got a chance to come down from that busy always doing something state.

What a great weekend thanks to Gavin and Vanina you guys are top teammates.
My preparation was not as consistent as it should of been and coming down with a fever and cold earlier in the week which hadn’t really cleared up by Saturday was going to make this a hard weekend and it was.
We had a very exciting race trading places between third and second and even down to fourth at one stage after a double flat in the middle of the night.
Found: Glasses at CORC24 Camp

Not so good
The old boyz category is getting competitive, our 3rd place last year could not be relived 
the gong ride!
anyone keen on signing up to the gong ride with us, raising money for
MS, so its $40 to sign in but i reckon its worth it
My First 24 hour event
Slowly getting the race notches in my belt. Apart from a casual spin at the yellowmundee grand prix, this was not only my first 24 hour event, but also my first experience at a lap style team race. I have to say its a completely different style of riding/racing and its one I'm not so familiar with. I'm used to the endurance races where you lock into a sustainable rythm and just spin to your hearts content. This however I found much much harder than any other event I've done before. With the lap mentality you really do not allow yourself to let up at any point.
