OMV to start the day
Rode the track today for the first time. It really did live up to all the great reviews I've read, the Hornsby riders and council did an amazing job. Did the green, blue and black 3 times each and even though I'd classify myself as an intermediate rider, I felt confident (but not totally) after the 2nd time round and could make most of the obstacles, except a couple of the logs. The switch backs and bridges were angled perfectly.

Mont 24 2013: How good was that?
It's amazing how much difference a little word makes sometimes. In my case, this year it is "lumens"
This year the lighting was much improved thanks to kind "sponsor" Ferei Lights Australia, who also bring in the German brand MyTinySun providing some vastly improved bar lights. Apart from a headcold a few weeks ago the training leadup was much better too.

MONT24
Well I’d always wanted to do a 24 hr race and now I have. Part of a Brady Bunch team with Hawkeye, Hans and our three sons (sounds like I’m channelling old TV shows there….)
What we thought might have been a fairly social category was pretty hotly contested and our 16 laps were only good enough for 8th out of 8 teams!

James Estate MTB Trails
Rode James Estate trails on Friday. http://jamesestatewines.com.au/#34
What a great spot, very picturesque valley bordering Wollemi National Park. This is location of Round 2 of the Rocky Trails Shimano Series.
Rode all the tracks including the newer tracks that will make up the race.(Some not shown in the video clip).

Wingello State Forest update for 24 Mar
Great condition. Sandy in places but I presume it's always like that.
Met a few nice folk at the trail head, including a group of bush walkers who had just got back from walking the red loop and where just about to go again. At over 4 hours a lap, I'll stick to riding round!

Stromlo Forest Park update for 24 Mar
Dry as a dead dingo's.....
Wildlife was in abundance at dusk last night, with a few kamikaze kangaroos on the trail.
