Muddy Line

Rob somehow managed to find the muddy route into our cabin Smiling

Ignitor front, crossmark rear, seems to be the tyres of choice.

Downhill Bog

Taken 28 Jun '08. Hasn't rained for over a week and has been warm and sunny since then.

Clearly this one of the sections of Manly Dam requiring the most attention. This is on the downhill from parkway to creek, just before the left/right final bend. I'm sure if you are familiar with the dam you know this spot.

Rob chasing hard

As promised the Merry Cross-mass cup was muddy, but fun. To be honest I found the short track race format a little odd, but eventually cottoned on to the nature of the beast. Like anything it takes a bit of getting used to so sure next time will see better times and a more comfortable ride.

Well, not that the format had anything to do with the comfort factor this time I guess. Mud, mud, sand, rain and mud were probably deciding factors in that.

Did a couple of reccy laps on both bikes and found the short track wet and slippery as expected. The one pinch climb didn't seem so bad, how hard could this be?
