WSMTB/MWMTB XC

WSMTB/MWMTB XC Round 6? Well it has been a while since the last XC round and it was back at Yarramundi again. A Grade riders were again very fast, with the likes of state XC elite riders mashing the pedals at the front. The track only had one tower of power climb on the day and skipped the furthest north section too, around seven kilometers long I heard. It was very dry, dusty and a bit loose in sections. On the first lap I passed Big Dog, which felt a bit unusual, and held him off for a lap or so. Mr Armour had some issues on the first lap as well, failing to finish the race. I was out to have fun as usual, with a bit of two wheel drift here and there. The eight block tyre on the rear has lost much of its tread and is still predictably loose. After five fun filled laps I placed sixth in A Grade. Thanks to Mick (who rode well in the big B Grade) for helping me get to the race and bringing his port-a-shade, keeping us cool.

Head down to Coolendel this weekend for some great racing. Fenner, Carlson and Tupulski are just some of the big names already registered. There will be grades for all riders, more details at SCUM.
