Aussie National Rnd- Mt Buller, Victoria
Mt Buller held the 3rd round of the Australian national series this past weekend. To not upset a trend, the weather turned to crap as we rolled into town.. We rode in the poring rain all day Friday, switching goggles and gloves every run to stay sane. The winds and rain got so bad on Saturday that practice was cancelled, we were forced to sit by the fire and play WRC on Xbox all day.. Pretty rough stuff.
As we were driving to the track for Seeding, it started snowing, it was freezing.. Thankfully the rain and snow would stay away for the rest of the day, but the track was a mess as the mud dried out, the rock's and wood got extra slimy making it a whole lot more technical.
I seeded 1st, and finished 1st, 8 seconds clear of my little bro Rhys in 2nd, and Nathan Rennie in 3rd. Jill and I have been laying low the last few months, just putting in the work, the last race we did was in November, so it's nice to see our hard work paying off.
Rhys is in good form right now, we practiced together, and he was flying. He's sitting second in the series with one round to go, would be nice to see him on top when the series comes to an end in March.
Jill had a massive crash in her final run, clipping her pedal on a rock and flipping over the bars on the fastest part of the track.. She got pretty beat up, just bruising though, so she'll be right in a week or so.
We have 2 weeks at home then it's off to National Championships in Adelaide.
Thanks for the support!
