Muds, wet and gears....
I'm getting a bit over riding in the mud at Callala. Bring on El Nino! I thought from the weather reports that it mightn't have been too bad, but the puddles in the streets around Callala Beach were a bit of a giveaway. There had obviously been a bit of recent rain on top of a pretty wet year. Had been hoping for a time down near 2:30, but knowing what the track and the rider were like in the wet, that goal was modified to getting under 3:00.

Manly Dam update for 01 Jul
No major chanve from last report on 28th. Golf Course section mostly dry but Allambie fire trail quite wet in places.
Beginners take care on last roll down at 19th Hole - landing zone is quite boggy so make sure you get your rollout line middled over the rocks that have been placed there to roll out on. Missing them might not end well
Started lap at beginning of Golf Course singletrack. Abandoned after Cootamundra playground.

Cascades update for 01 Jul
A few puddles and you'll need to clean your bike afterwards pretty thoroughly, but otherwise pretty rideable. In contrast to last time i rode it with Jacojoco after the grading, it's well packed down now with some definite lines formed. Some of the eroded creek crossing entries appear to have been filled in by the RFS

The Definition of Character Building?
Having had a near disaster race at the Nationals only a few weeks back and with not much time to really rectify the form, I went in with the mindset of no form and no expectations. Lined up in elite mens thinking I am little out of my depth to be honest, anyway the gun went and the pace was on with Jet Racing trying to control the front however I noticed James Downing had attacked early. I boosted up the left hand side and found myself in the middle of the pack and tried to settle into a good rythem, I had no intentions of trying the fast boys and wanted to race my own race.

Husky 100ker - 2012
I think the race organisers did a much better job this year. The track was marked better, race central work well, access the the RSL toilets and somewhere to keep warm in the morning was nice as well.
Also, thanks to the local club SCUM (http://www.scum.asn.au/) for providing awesome single track. It would be awesome to be able to link the trails around the massive bog holes because for me these we just too much.
