when the weather changed our plans we were initially a bit disappointed. nat was really looking forward to the gravity girls and we all hoped to spend time in thredbo. but then that’s just life and we moved on.
nat and I rode western wedgetail / pork barrel / double dissolution (this is canberra after all) and skyline / luge / old duffy’s descent quite a few times and natalie collected a massive amount of strava achievements.
kris & i thought she’d need some time to get up to speed again but as it turned out that time was about a minute into her first run; after that she just let it rip. she was even flying down that blind steep rolldown on pork barrel which some people here think is tricky.
we also caught up with our friends tash and al who convinced us to move our thredbo visit by a week and go to the cannonball festival. nat gets to race again (the flow trail) and we hear the santa cruz syndicate will be there as well. did I mention both nat and i ride santa cruz nomads?
we owe tash and al (who will be up there and racing, too) and we are really looking forward to being in thredbo for the cannonball and catching up & riding with them up there! now hopefully greg will be able to service our suspension and then we’d do a few training runs before the race … should be good!
