I just had my first XC race.

It was fun. I beat someone too

2 laps of a 5km coarse ( pretty rough though, pretty much downhilling is one part, climbing up curving single track, etc.) I also did a a lap before the race, so I did 15kms in total, which is alright, I guess.

Congrats!

Keen to continue the racing? It didn't psych you out at all being tough?

Congrats again

 

[Rhys]

Yeah! Im racing again in two weeks time.

Oh and rather then saying I beat someone, I'll say I came 3rd, still true but sounds more impressive

 

[Mommers]

i wouldnt mind to do XC racing!

Top effort mate My first race I only just finished the 2nd lap (outa 3, in Sport), damn mechanical faliure, I rode 3km with a flat rear tyre...Still loved it though, the course was the best course I've riden, would make some great Freeriding too.

After the racing bug gets you thats it, every XC, enduro, point to point and whatever else you'll want to race :wink: I was ment to race yesterday too, at Stockyards, YouYangs; I missed out though coz I desided it was too hot at 7am, but it cooled down before the race so I am really pissed at myself now.

Anyways top job, I'm glad to hear you enjoyed it

First race I did was in the wet riding clips pritty much for hte first time. Wasn't a pleasent experience! Was like 20mins behind the leader at the end of the race. From then on though it only got better
