Impressive Entrance to Wedlock

I know this is supposed to be a racing blog,

However with this post I the wed,

I'm sure most of you would already know, Ash "Epix" Thomas, Former World cup XC junior, Founder of the Felt Enduro racing team.

Was married this weekend at one of the nicest country homesteads on the Murray your likely to see,

With an impressive entrance to the altar on the beach,

Putting on a show for his guests,

Turning up on his wakeboard.

The happy couple..............Awww

BMC Takes the Double

Yep......Hot off the Press.......BMC take the double!

With Jason & Jac taking out the Male & Female Solo
Categories, at the Kona24hr down at Forest in Victoria.

With both Jason & Jac getting the job done on their
always performing BMC fourstrokes!

Jac with the added advantage,
of a pair of Hand built wheels by Andy the man himself of KaosCustomBikes,
Nightlightning lights turning night into day for her &
Maybe a few coaching tips from Mwa!

To Jac's credit she has been working really hard on her fitness with heaps of time on the bike & working just as hard on her skills with Jes & Norm at Mtbskills.com.au,
So a big congratulations to you Jac!

Jason continues his unstoppable form with another convincing win!
Well done mate!

Congrates must also go out to young Scott Chancellor for taking out 2nd & Fellow Worlds competitor Carl(the man)Maroney picking up third, not a bad effort for a guy in the 40+ category, making him more than double Scott's age! Youth VS Experience at it's best.
Nice work guys!

Results aren't up yet, knowing the fullgas crew, they wont be far away,
You will find all the detailed results here!

Confucius Say

Man who eat many prune, sit on dunny seat for many moon!

If only that was the cause,

With my blood test results back, indicating that all my levels are apparently back to normal & the docs diagnosis, a nasty virus.

So I'll take that as a win I guess, even though energy levels are still low, just have to eat well & more rest, easier said than done when work is coming out of every orifice!

On that note, you may have guessed Kona24 would not be wise,

Ironically wasn't on my schedule anyhow, as my trusty apprentice Ash & Em are to be wedded this weekend, therefore a relaxing weekend on the Murray with friends to help celebrate this occasion is in order.

Good luck to Jas, Joel & Jac all flying the BMC flag solo this weekend!

Live to ride, ride to live,(Taken literally, I've been dying of late)

PS. The plan previously spoken about has been put on hold, pending variation, due to health.

Reverse Lights

The reverse lights have been well & truly on!

For over a week now I been feeling far less than myself,

With hopefully hitting rock bottom toward the end of last week,

With work being an absolute battle Thursday & Friday, suffering from the runs, aching body & absolute no energy,

After locking myself away for the whole weekend, with a whole bunch of good wholesome food & slept for most it.

Feeling a little better for it, however still not right,

I managed to get to the Docs yesterday, following a thorough examination bloods were taken!

So hopefully they will show up what's a miss.

Need to get right! Before I embark on what I'm planning to do in a months time!

More on that later!

Hi Ho, hi ho, I gotta go.
