Whats been going down in Perth

Good day all you cobbers from down under!!! Well so starts a busy few weekend for myself and here is a quick report as to whats been happening!. Last week i took a trip to the First "Gravity Enduro event" run on the new trails in Kalamunda. It was a really fun day and i would have loved to have been part of it but couldnt get an entry. The fastest times where posted by Sam Hill ( a Perth local and world class downhill ripper i learned later) "Sam was the man" Smooth, fast and bionic. He even cleared the jump section from berm to jump. Heres a couple of pictures i took of some unnamed riders. The amtmosphere was really good with everyone cheering for crashers, smashers, rippers and not so rippers. Next event i can do i am in!!

I got my very first MTB event this Sunday 33 years after starting BMX racing i am finally taking the plunge!! Its the State XC championships. So i hope to place ok and not hold the fast guys up. I ve then got the Dwellingup 100 on Sept 7th which is a big event in the MTB calendar then i am off to Italy to compete in the Masters World road race in Trento, Italy. This will include real mountain climbs something lacking in Perth. Its a 114km with the last 20km being a pretty steep climb. I hope to finish respectfully as my 80kg aint going up no hill fast! Anyway thanks for reading and please spread the Action sports coaching word to friends. I intend to develop it more over the coming year. Ciao for now Mike
