Had a great day working up at Montrose on Sunday. Thanks to the team there for great hosting, everyone was really impressed with the facilities and hopefully the coaching!

Great sunny day, new area for riding, nice group to coach. Work is pretty good at the moment.

Next coaching session is at Wild West in Jo'burg, if you have booked you need to get your payment in to confirm your spot, if you are keen to come along please contact Monica who can see where to fit you in.

Good race at Kei National today, no tweaks on my knee, held it together to finish in one piece (first goal always!) on time and from the provisional results just out, in first place! Pretty stoked with that. Thanks to everyone in the Comsol Bell pits for all your help!!

Pretty stoked to have taken the win at the second round of the WFO yesterday! Haven't had much racing training time lately, and my fitness is not quite back to where it should be, so was really pleased that my knee was fine, I was only a bit tired, and managed to hold off the competition for the day. Had SO much fun riding well again.

Scott Bouverie came 4th overall, a great effort, and Will came 9th overall. He says he needs to train harder this week so you may see him huffing and puffing on his mountain bike.

This year I am privileged to be supported by Bell Equipment, manufacturers of some of the world's biggest and best machinery. Check out this video of the latest and greatest dump truck, just imagine the MX track we could make with this!
