A good day on the mountain today, Phil hit the big ramp in the woodpark and i hit the middle one, both for the first time! plus hit another big one (for me), Ant was launching big (again), a few bike problems today though, Phil lost a couple of nuts form his big ring!! cost him 22.50€ for new nuts! luckily he could fit them himself, had to check they were tight every now and then but he assures us their fine, Ant had to replace his pads after only 24 hrs use and has given up on ceramic 25€ (dont buy ceramic kids it doesnt pay), I bust a spoke 30c ace. On the not so ace side my legs are slowly turning purple, at first it was a little bruise here and there but they seem to be joining each other via cuts and other bruises, had to give in today only so many times you can get that involved with the scenery before something bad happens, not this late in the game sunshine, not on my watch!!!

THE MAXI APPROACHES
The camp site is slowly filling up with bikers all ready for the race (there you go i said it) first official practice day tomorrow so we will see if we have the stamina, we did from the top of skippy's to nearly the bottom today in about 25mins thats pretty much my time Im sure the boys would have been quicker, its a tough call, not many people will be doing it on full DH rigs, most will be using enduro's or freeride bikes but eh, who gives a shit were here for the fun of it and to raise money for our charities. turns out the girl who works on the site here is entering too, balls shes bound to beat me!
