No National Titles this year but close!

Big ups to Ryan Wills with a very close TT results only 4 seconds off the U23 National Title finishing in 2nd place. Both Ryan and Wade had good solid road races but the race was a little soft with the break gone and no one willing to chase, but thats racing!!

Monique won the Auckland round of the National series and takes lead in NI XC series.
Clinton is off the bike still and we are working on that. Logan is training hard in Perth and I have write an number of training programs and finish my degree in the next few weeks.

just a count up of national champions I have coached to date

the soon to be added to list

Clinton Avery - Jn TT, U23 TT, Junior MTB XC, Elite MTB XC, Short track MTB XC
Stuart Houltham- 2x Elite MTB XC
Sonia Foote -Elite MTB XC, open womens MTB XC
Logan Hutchings- U23 TT and Road Race, Elite TT
Monique Avery - Jn MTB XC, U23 MTB XC, Elite Short Track MTB XC

and many others have collected medals also

the good and the bad

first the good
Nigel and Patrick both won their races at the first round of the North Island National series, Monique was 2nd and Ash 5th and Scott 6th.
the bad
Clinton would have won the Elite but on last major decent he stacked it and had to one leg pedal his way to the finish. His lead vanished and he finished 3rd but a ride in the Ambulance was the prize. Worst fears was a broken femur, but fortunately just severe bruising. He should be OK for road nationals this weekend.

other racing was the tour of vineyards with Wade and Ryan doing strong rides in prep for nats in a few days.
