I have not been on my mtb since the scott 24 after discovering i had cracked the frame, and today i found out that they cant source me a new before THE FLING>its this weekend... and where my blog all began, 2years ago i got on the podium, so here is a call out toanyone who can lend me anything pref a large frame.. im happy to wear any jersy to support who ever supports me.
The last couple of weeks has just been day in day out on the single speed, lots of highs and lows most of the lows has been caused by my french polishing business dieing in the arse so being down in the dumps a lil and completly stressed its been hard to power up the legs to do anything that would resemble a race... I did 3 repeats of kariong one arvo with matt and our best time was 8min 30.. last thursday matt turned up late at our meeting spot so we just rode down to copa beach and then up to captin cook lookout and continued on following del monte place which is like a roller coaster it was awesome and death defying, the climb out of copa was damn tough but we scored a few cheers for working hard at it, then we attempted to kill each other down cullens road i attacked to early and maxed out but once recovered i chased back and just out rode matt over the invisible line..
Sunday turned into an epic, we saddled up at 8am (to late for how hot it got) we meet simon (on a brand new scott geared roadie, geez here noisey) and to later find out it was simons first real road ride on it :).... we rode out to watch the local mtb 6hr race which def turned heads to see us gooses turn up on ss roadies to a mtb race... anyways so we headed north and just kept riding till lunch time.. belmont was our destination a yummy chicken snitzel and we rode back to terrigal with the wind blowing on our backs which was very welcomed after riding into it for hours.. 154km in totalled covered so the three burnt roadies for day went for a beer, it was glorious or was it the view of the ocean or was it what we could see between us and the beach...
The beer garden was packed and with us three having a beer in lycra, so it was only a matter or time before something was bound to happen... as the 2nd beer was never gona sit well we opted for a coffee and while i stood there with matt and waited for my caffeine hit, a lady stood up from her table of smiling laughing friends and walked straight up to me pointed to my junk and suggested i need to do some re-arranging because it looks like i have a massive vagina, Once her comment sunk in i proceeded to inform her that i have alot to pack in down there, so i was doing the best i could... lots of laughs......
so for the fling this year is all a mystery i do hope i find a bike ill be comfortable on...
chops.
