Winter Night Riding - July 2013

The winter months this year have been pretty busy with young family and work, however in an effort to keep things ticking along I have kept up the running as well as having some fun night ride missions on the MTB. After investing in a new night light it has made the riding a whole lot brighter!! I picked up the "Glo Worm X2" and it is one awesome light!!! Coming up is the Dunedin Mazda 6hour Adventure Challenge and the following weekend the Dunedin Marathon... more on that here soon. And back into a summer of events and adventure!

Naseby 12hour MTB April

There has been a little void in updating some o my recent missions... The Naseby 12 hour in April was a good day out. Having raced in this previously in teams I thought it was time to put myself out there and ride Solo!! I set myself some goals to keep me focused and motivated by positive thought. I completed 165km in hte 12 hours and had a great day. The most challenging would have been lap 14 when I ran out of battery and rode the last 10min of the lap pretty much bumping along in the complete dark. Lap 15 was saved when Gavin lent me his light he wasn't needing. All in all a great day and a bit of a sore lower back and legs for a few days after this one!
