Well, i better bring up the rear! good a great day at Avill yesterday. Practice went really well, despite the daunting look at some of the course on the walk up in the morning. by my runs, i felt i had it pretty much dialled. First run came, and i really felt good, hitting the corners with a sort of vigour i have missed since may! than came the killer.....
.... I hit the berm on the lower section of the course a little too hard and popped out the top, gash up my thigh in the process. Gutted is not the word. With that playing on my mind, the second run was never gonna be an improvement, hitting corners too hard and missing the high lines, leading to no proper flow.
All in, i was not overly impressed with my performance, but it has spurred me on now to place better in the next race at ashcombe. my only consolation is, if i had entered the novice catagory like i had toyed with, i would of place 4th!
well done to mono on the 7th, and of course matt, on the overall win. If your at the next race i will say hello, i didn't even know what you look like to introduce my self this time!
