Hi all, welcome to my blog. Normally i would have hung up the bike by now and would be pumped up to ski at every opportunity, but this year i have decided to go over the Europe to have a crack at a few mtb races and have some form for the Mt Stromlo World Cup in August. Its too cold to train in a Cooma winter anyway! My itinerary is basically as follows:
-World Marathon championships - Villabassa, Italy
-Swisspower Cup - Savognin, Switzerland
-Transalp (stage race) - Germany to Italy
-L'hexagonal (mountain bike tour de France) - France

My training has been going really well. My new coach, Chris Clarke, has definately been working me hard. I even did a 200km training ride the other day, from Khancoban to Dead Horse Gap and back (then around Towong). It was pretty much the toughest ride i've done. 4650m of climbing and having to ride through snow at the top.
