The second year of the King of Kincumba and things were hotting up. Not only would we raise funds for the Westpac Rescue Helicopter Service and Pedal 4 Pierce but there were some fast names in mountianbiking vying to take the crown as the King. Last years King and central coast local James Lamb wasn't going to make it easy pushing both his bike and his body to the limit.
While some of the riders were dusting off their bikes and pumping up the tyres, Andy Blair, Australian Marathon Champion, was just popping in for a visit before heading overseas for the Marathon Worlds. Andy was joined at the front of the pack by elite riders Jenny Fay and Garry Millburn, all prepped for the punishment Kincumba Mountain could deliver.
While I don't want to give to much away, the fun of it all, but I had a great morning duelling with Peter Selkrig. Peter is in the last phase of training for a 24 solo effort and has been making some solid efforts within the endurance scene this year. Good luck Peter.

It was great to see the local hotel, radio and television stations supporting the event along with the local bike shops, council and mountainbike club. Thanks to all those who contributed towards the event. I look forward to testing myself against Kincumba next year.
