Yellomundi is such a classic XC track and today it was pretty much perfect. Conditions were pretty warm, my car said 30 so probably around 28ish. I was in group C which meant 3 laps. I started hard along with the rest of the pack and somehow found myself in fifth. I couldn't keep the pace of Pedro in forth but lucky the sixth place rider couldn't keep place with me either so I rode over the line in fifth with no real challenges. I was pretty much riding as hard as I could for the first lap, slowed the place a bit in the second and then put the hammer down on the last lap. I need to get some more short course training in after all the endurance training I was doing for the Doctor last weekend becuase I should really be faster than this but then It is a week after the doctor and I think that took more out of me than I thought it would.
Bad luck to Damien for braking a crank, and to John for his front wheel puncture which kept him out of forth place in the overall standings I think.
Oh and I hope the chap in the back of the ambulance gets better soon, that's the most blood I have seen from a MTB injury in a very long time
