What a day eh?
Considering I was happy to finish at all I shocked myself and came in at 6:33, which I am very happy with. I had 2 breakdowns and a bad crap just after walking through the water so I reckon I could have knocked 15 minutes off that (perhaps, it was still pretty hard going). I had the pleasure of riding most of the second 50 with Rob who managed to keep my from fully doing myself in, only to go and tackle those ridiculous rock climbs he had be practising a few weekend before, great stuff.
Congratulations to Critty who came in at an amazing 5:20. Not bad for someone who has "apparently" be riding MTB for about 5 months.
I also notice that Craig Gordon's time of 4:10 from last year was beaten by his mate Hamish Elliot with an astonishing time of 4:09 - just insane. I guess I should eat humble pie as I predicted no records would be broken this year. The track was in great shape, a credit to the organisers. What wasn't so we organised was having the second round of the downhill champs at Wisemans ferry, we lined up for over 2 hours to get on 
So who is up for a Andos/Oaks next weekend then? Best get in training for next year eh?

What did you have after walking through the water?
Ahhh... was that you?
You said it was a 'pleasure' to ride the last 50 with me, but I have to apologise for whining like a girl on parts of the Womerah struggle, despite only walking two of the pinches. It was good to mostly be in sight of each other and have a moan occasionally - reckon it spurred us on really!
As we came out of the water I heard someone yelling out with pain behind and figured cramps but all I could see was the 4-odd Km on the computer left and wanted it over. Sorry
As for Critty - watch out for when he's been on the bike longer, huh? Nice time!
Loosens the bowels. Hope you had some paper.
just noticed the rather amusing typo in my original post. Apologies for that.
