[Event] IDEAFRUIT MTB And Trail Run

[Johny Bravo]

never rained through out the race & day turned out to be awesome. Route was muddy as hell. Started long route but bailed half way as I lost my rear brakes. Would Love to do in more dryer conditions, views were amazing.

I was soooo looking forward to this race. Woke up last night and it was pissing with rain, so I decided to bail. Seems like the right decission for my bike, but the wrong decission for me.

Seems like next week we are going to have summer weather at the Backsberg race. Lets hope it stays that way. I need some dry racing.

Race was actually really good. Did the long route and obviously it was super wet but still really nice. Funny thing tho my nose started bleeding for no reason and I had blood all over my face and my leg and my bike so everyone thought I had the meanest crash ever.

Yeah. I don't have a watch and not a ppa member so no timing chip. Wanted to know how badly my brother beat me.

Thats easy. Mtb obviously. No seriously. Dont want to step on any toes, I love winter, but I am glad we are officially in Spring. The last couple of weeks have been really bad if you were a Western cape cyclist.

I enjoyed the 55. After 3 weeks off sick it was great to be back all be it minus a lot of energy and race fitness.

 

Bike will need a strip down this week - late nights ahead to be ready for Backsburg.
