I did the first PMBC club XC event yesterday. I was out to get back into the scene & do some testing. My first goal was to remain calm/breathing going round corner uphill. (Uphill going round corner with pea gravel right at the bend..) Ok on first lap, almost ok on second. Second goal, nutrition. Errmm..good thought but not quite there. I will work on this during my dirt time this weekend.
I wasn't out to come first, which is a good thing because i came last out of 5 chickadeesA corner plus my bike struck back & have some very nice bruises on my left side & sore arm.
(The pic btw is at the beginning of the course & was following a long line of other riders. The Elite/Expert folks started 1hr after us)
Next club race, April 19th. I have time to do some work on nutrition timing & uphill skills on pea gravel. Ahh, gotta love pea gravel![]()
