26/3/12 The first World Cup of the Season was held in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa. It was logistically a hard one for us Aussies as the Oceania Champs were held on the weekend prior in New Zealand, then most of us stopped off home for 24hrs in b/w. So jet lag was always going to play […]
12/3/12 I was quite excited when I heard that the 2012 Oceania Champs were to be held in Rotorua, New Zealand. What better excuse to go and ride the trails in this place described as a MTBiker’s paradise! Of course the first few days of the trip, would be all business and riding restricted to […]
26/2/12 See footage of the event here The biggest race of the domestic season had arrived all too quickly.

With blue skies and temperatures in the mid 20’s, at least the conditions for this year’s National round 2 were way more favorable than last. Friday arvo the super D was contested. I was […]
7/1/12 I was pretty keen to get out in the new Torq / BSS kit for the Road Nationals out at Buninyong. Due to an unfortunate bout of gastro the week prior I had not raced in any of the Bay Crits as a lead up, which actually meant I had quite fresh legs. I […]
1/1/12 Well I thought I’d start the year off with a memorable ride down the Mornington Peninsula. What a beautiful morning it was too with the sun shining and very little traffic on the roads around Redhill.
