Below is a preview, click to read the full post

First entered Dirtworks 100 in 2008. started to cramp up before 28klm water stop pushed on in pain made the cutoff time at the bridge ( road the bridge first try) then halfway up the hill to the last water stop (78klm) had to pull out the saftey bikes had allready left.

Entered again in 2009. only to go thru the front window of a BMW of all cars ($4,ooo damage to BMW lots off soft tisue damage to me ) While out on a training ride 2 weeks before the race. not enough time to recover, mate thinks I am jinxed.

HMBA receives funding for toilets at Awaba.

NB: Originally posted elsewhere on the Global Riders Network and appears via syndication.

Yesterday HMBA received confirmation from the Dept of Spor and Rec that we would be receiving a grant for toilets at Awaba.

This is great news for the club and will contribute to a much needed amenity at the Awaba trails.

The club had resolved to go ahead with the toilets at the last committee meetings, so the grant will allow funds that had been allocated to the project to be diverted to the new expanded carpark, new shuttle turnaround and ultimately the next phase of trail design and construction.

track was perfect today, was a little bit dry and loose but a good sprinkle of rain half way through the day made the soil nice and moist.
only had one issue with the track right after Scorpion gap on the DH track, had a big slide, but that was more of a speed issue.
overall 9/10
