Since the Bluff race on the 6th I have stayed
down in the South island on a training camp with the team, training hard making
the most of what the deep south has to offer in the way of riding.
First up we spent a few days in Dunedin where we caught
up with kashi Leuchs. It was great to talk with him about the season ahead and
we picked up a lot of valuable advice. We also managed to rope Tom Bradshaw in
to act as tour guide showing us some of Dunedins best trails and despite the threatening
forecasts the weather was surprisingly kind.
Over the last week we have been living it up in Queenstown,
based out of Glenorchy. The riding has been amazing and the climbing miles have
been stacking up after some pretty epic days in the mountains. The trails are
so different compared to back home in Rotorua and the skills have been getting
a good work out. Riding out of the comfort zone has been a good way to speed up
the adjustment process to the new Super Fly and I am really enjoying pushing the
pace now that I’ve got the hang of it.
We have a few more days left in the South with a busy schedule
of riding and a race in Nelson before we head back home on Monday.
