30/11/12 After having missed out on racing the Highland Fling for the last couple of years, I made sure that I included the event in this year’s schedule. Due to the great organisation, beautiful location and renowned tough course, the Highland Fling marathon, pulls a huge crowd every year. This year’s elite field was one […]
15/11/12 Just a quick reminder that early bird entries into the awesome Hellfire Cup stage races, are closing today! Hellfire Cup This one is set to be heaps of fun!
30/10/12 Margaret River and the surrounding region would have to be one of my favourite destinations. You are pretty much guaranteed perfect weather at this time of year and the spectacular coastlines, combined with rugged bushland and cute little country towns, make this a perfect race destination. After having had so much fun at […]
19/10/12 These last few days have been super tough, probably some of the hardest riding / mountaineering I’ve done in my life! I can safely say, for sure I have never done so much hiker-biking. The mud combined with 25% gradients made much of the course un-rideable and so the race has turned out […]
16/10/12 Wow, today was a tough one! The humidity here just hit’s as soon as you set foot outside. I reckon I must have lost a good litre of fluid even before race start. I’m glad to have finished day 2 in one piece after a few clumsy crashes in the last 20km…some of […]
15/10/12 Today started at 3.30am for me, with the body-clock obviously still wired for Melbourne time. Although, for those that don’t know me, such an early start isn’t totally out of character. Around 3hrs later I dug into some rice porridge and then a few rounds of toast, from the breakfast buffet. With all […]
14/10/12 Yesterday Ed and I arrived into Langkawi, one of Malaysia’s most beautiful tropical islands. I will be lining up alongside some of the fastest MTB chicks in the World on Monday for the start of the International Langkawi MTB Tour. The race will involve a variety of distances and terrain over the next […]
9/10/12 It’s hard to believe a whole year has passed since the last You Yang’s Yowie marathon race! The last year has certainly been jam-packed full of racing around the globe. The Yowie is one of those local races I try get to each year as Geelong MTB club put on such a great […]
2/10/12 It was great to get up to Canberra and race the Kowalski marathon event while also catching up with many of my Anytime fitness / Trek teammates last weekend. As usual we had a rather hectic time. The next weekend away I shall have to remember to schedule in a little more relax […]
17/9/12 Before deciding on my race schedule for the Australian domestic Season, I sat down and made a list of all the races I have competed in over the last few years and the ones I really enjoyed and therefore wanted to return to. The Flight Centre Cycle Epic, held just out of Brisbane, […]
