Bat Posted December 2, 2016 Share Hats off to all the riders still racing. with the extreme heat and wind experienced this year and looking at the front runners how close they are to the front runner of last year, they are really moving. It is again going to be a nail bite finish this year as in last year. (Pity so many riders had to abandon already, but with the harsh conditions, they are all winners) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD has been riding professionally and competitively for the better part of ten years...maybe more. You must also remember that the dreyers had a baby recently (within the last 2 years i think) so they are both putting in incredible training mileage whilst caring for a toddler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is Jeannies first Munga. She's got serious endurance pedigree though... and is our current vets Mtb marathon Champ. She won the FC with Martin on her 'honeymoon'Was Jeannie Bomford (sp) before she got married. Martin has definitely helped her excel in the long stuff... mentally they are both absolute beasts, and this friends is largely a mental game.
