Here's a different type of blog post for me. Let the photos do the talking.
Until next time, get some Ay Up lights, train your butt off during the winter and ride your bike towards your dreams. dog

Pre Race Jitters
.
After training and racing for a few years now, rarely do I get pre race jitters. I do for this one!
The great thing about having these feelings, it is a nice reminder that I still find racing is exciting. Racing overseas is even more exciting. New trails, new riders, lots of unknowns...etc.
Two more sleeps and we will be on a plane. 22 hours later we will have our feet down in Italy. Pick up our hire car, drive for 3 hours then meet up with our dear friends Rach and her mechanic, coach, pit biatch Shannon.
I am pretty sure I will be way to eager to ride the trails. So much so I reckon I will have to get on them the same day we arrive.
As a post race treat, my dear, sweet woman and I are travelling for another couple of weeks. One of the highlights will be getting into the mountains to watch some of stage 19 of the Giro d'Italia! AWESOME!
I have gone back and read some of my closing comments on previous blog posts. Humph! Nice little reminders of how I love to ride and race my bike.
Ciao Ciao...

World Championship 24 Hour Racing in Italy
.
a) Tickets booked.
b) Race entered (Solo Single Speed).
c) Accommodation and Vehicle sorted.
d) Countdown has begun (3 1/2 weeks until R A C E D A Y!).
Check out these trails...
I am confident I have just enough form to show up and have a good fun race. There is lots & lots & lots of climbing in each lap. Looks like about 500 metres per 18km lap.
The best part about going to Italy for this race is I am going with my life partner and another couple of great friends.
Mr. Ay Up Lights is very kindly putting together some brand spanking new super bright lights for me along with some other essential accessories. My current Ay Up lights are 2 years old now. They are still outshining and outperforming all other lighting systems. I am really excited about these new ones!
Until next time...
...It's easier to say no after saying yes, than to say yes after saying no. Grab the opportunities when they come along. You'll never know where they lead you.
