it was the 3rd and final round of the n-duro summer series that was held yesterday in the whaka forest. hope it wasn't the final of summer though!?! na, it's pretty chilly this morning but i am sure summer will return soon :)
the course was great and again different to the last two events, which makes for more interesting racing and riding. there were a few nice climbs in it and some cool downhill single trails were waiting as little treats at the top of the climbs ;)
we had quite a bit of rain on friday and a few more showers on saturday and over night to sunday but race day was dry, very lucky! a few of the trails were puddly but it wasn't too bad at all. i was riding most of the race by myself which was a bit odd and i kept thinking i might have gotten lost, but i hadn't. maybe i should have pushed a bit harder but there wasn't any urgency.
i won my race and the series, very happy about that.
what's so great about these races is the socializing before and after the race (and on the occasion while racing ;) ), there are so many familiar faces hanging about keen for a chat and to have a laugh. good times :)
sorry no pics again! :(
i think there is no racing till the highlander (5 April) for me now, but who knows there might be a fun race popping up somewhere in between?
