Re: This ride meeting: 
CCOMTB - Club Race - 2010 Round 2
Status: 
Finished
Laps: 
2
Time: 
01:20:00

not knowing what to expect on the day I arrived a bit early, found out the difference between the top and bottom car park(about a 500m hill climb Smiling ) After rego and a bit of a wait it was game on. Not to bad a start but i suffered on the climbs, that really showed me where i need to work, could pull away from riders on a d/h section and hold my own on the flat but got smashed on the ups. Have realised a free beer(wedding) isn't ideal preperation and have just found out i have another free beer (50th) before rd3. glad i started this racing caper and looking foward to the rest of the year.

ps. thanks Dylan for the heads up on the drop off , (nailed it both laps Smiling )

Well done mate, I knew you would enjoy it.

What hills though? You sure you were on the same track Eye-wink

See you at the next one!

Well done, mate. The first one is always a bit of a shock to the system. Laughing out loud

I know what you mean about the ups, jacojoco smashed me around Cascades on Saturday arvo. Now if you want to improve your climbing, that is the place to train. Evil

I hope to do a few races myself later in the year, once the second shoulder op is out of the way.

Hey Hawkeye
Good to catch up at the recent meetings.
What's the latest on the wrist and shoulder ?
