Just changed the crankset over to XT should have shaved a few grans off the bike so no excuses for me to be out on the teack a vit more during marshaling , say hello to the dude on the scott 29er dually wjth the orange vest on as I let you past . Have a great race ... too Gazza I will be chasing you if I see you you whippet , have fub as we have the old track back ....
Looking forward to a few quick laps hopefully??????
Good work on all the track maintenance.
Cheers!
on that legendary fire please Martin & Juliane. It's always a highlight of the 12 Hour
there were 2 fires going out the back of the track also a awesome sight too see even if it was a marshall & sweep lap ... I only recognised a few nobmobbers that are regularly at races as well , hope you all enjoyed yourselves as much as I did .

@smiley - we were all snuggled around the fire as the temp dropped about 20 deg after dark when the Marshall's took off to sweep the course. One of them was a young bloke in a t-shirt & shorts. We took bets on what time the ambulance would be called but he made it to the end!
Great event. Lot's of Nobmobbers enjoying fantastic weather.
@gazza is on a different planet - got 3rd fastest lap of the event plus well up there with many of his others. I was close on his tail with about the 600th fastest lap...
Me & my mate decided to take off a little bit earlier to share the sweep make it quicker , there were 3 of us constantly going around all day with a girl out there too , we spent time getting the track safer with the pallet & the door on the track too make it flow better & safer & fun .
Great work @smiley. Fell off at slow speed in sticky mud one lap then next time round there was a crew laying a pallet down then and no more problems. Same a few laps later at a different spot. You guys rocked!
Just wanted to pass on my thanks and congratulations to WSMTB and jetblack who were involved in running a truly magical event. That was my first 12 hr experience and it certainly won't be the last. Great atmosphere, great trails, great music, great riders and a cracking group of team mates to boot. We'll be back!
Many thanks to Russ and crew who made those great running repairs on the day! That pallet covered a nasty littlle hole.
This event always has a great feel due to the team effort.
