MTB is back on the plan

well a new initiative has seen me return to coaching XC Mountain bike. The local polytech has started a scholarship scheme based around MTB racing and have asked me to lead the coaching of the team. So tomorrow we launch the Wiarariki MTB squad. This squad will have elite and non elite riders with the hope of getting the best performance and a degree out of them. It should be fun.

top results that

great weekend at the National champs, I almost didnt take the 3 hour drive there are back on the friday just to watch the Clinton and Logan in the time trial, but Im glad I did as they both won!! wicked, 2 national champions in just on an hour. It was a happy home. The road races didnt go as well but were solid in the hot conditions, Clinton will never wonder what if? in a road race, I wish he would some times but he is learning to be patient as the races get longer and faster. Logan had a great race to finish 5th in a whos who of NZ racing, including protour riders.
