Finally after a few attempts I finished a 100 klm enduro even in training I hadn't done more than 75 klm so to finish 110 klm was a great feeling, I know it was much slower than most of you guys but I just wanted to finish so tried to keep heart rate around 80% and enjoy the trails which were great, thank you hue for a great event will do it again next year hopefully quicker and now I know the track a bit better I can hammer the single track a bit harder . Now back to training for Dirtworks 100 next may

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.
