rained out

Few posts for December but hey thats due to working and socialising. I am busy as a mining camp hooker at the moment so stealing time to get out on the bike has been hard. Did manage a few rides this week. Got absolutely soaked last weekend down the beach with Shane and Al. It was nice rain as far as rain goes as it was warm. Not alot of folks out either which made it nice as well.
Did get out to lysterfeild for a session during the week. Did not see a single sole which was awesome as usually it is a busy place even mid wek. Only thing I saw was a shit load of kangaroos... lots of joeys which couldnt work me out.. the 29er is getting there slowly, but still trying to work out the right fork pressures. I have changed the tyres to a 2.1 ignitor by maxxis which seems to hook up a bit better than the fast traks by specialized.
Was trying to get out today but the rain over the last three days has been impressive to say the least. We have had around 100mm of rain in the last 3 days. Was hoping to get out on the 29er but even with this amount of rain it was a no go.
Saw my nephew for the first time this week. Cute little fella and it was nice to see my sister in law getting in to the mum thing easily.
Shout out to Carl M (3rd in his age group at 24 hrs Adrenaline Solo worlds) whos father passed away at my workplace after a short but strong battle against his illness. Very sad thing to witness....very sad
I was thinking about going to Revolution at Vodaphone arena this week but decided to do something else and I missed one of the best falls on a track I have seen in a while. Some of you might have seen it on the TV. Glad to see that everyone was Ok and still walking after the fall.



What is it about Christmas....people lose there minds driving on the road and the rudness of people in shops just gets bigger... chill out!
Happy pedaling
