The ‘ pain on the peak’ race on Saturday was one of the first Real Cross races around here so I was really stoked to go.  The conditions were hot and dry, and  there was plenty of dirt (dust) the consistency of talcum powder and it was flying everywhere.

I started near the back, but was able to move into the top five fairly quickly and was doing ok until the rear blew, and that was the end of that.  Turned my ankle saving myself from going down hard in a corner, but it should be okay for action next week.  Guy and I had the opportunity to chat with the man Trebon a bit so it wasn’t a total loss.  Better luck next time (and perhaps some pit wheels too!).
