Here's what happened during our 3 man team 12 hour ride:

I started first, My bike broke, got towed back, as soon as I got towed back, swapped over tag to my mate Nick who went out with his 2smoker. He completed a lap so our team then got 1.

He then swapped tag with Dan on his 4pop who went out, got stuck for ages on a hill and got escorted back after he'd given up ( :lol: ) so he then gave me the tag, I went out on his 4pop and completed our 2nd lap.

I got back swapped tag with Nick who got our 3rd lap. He came back, swapped with Dan who got escorted back AGAIN after getting a puncture ( :lol: :lol: ). I then went out on Nick's 2smoker and got our 4th lap.

Time was getting late, we had time for 1 more lap (maybe 2 if we were quick) so Dan was gonna go out again as he'd not completed a lap yet but his 4pop wouldn't start, so Nick went out again and got our 5th lap, he got back just after the chequered flag was out so (luckily?) I didn't have to go out again, lol.


2 laps is all I did. And I don't think I had another lap in me. If you're gonna be training for next year, seriously, work on your fitness.

Local (doncaster) is a couple of MX tracks, you can turn up n ride or book one of the circuits exclusive for the day. Might be worth a weekend at it. Full day round n round the same track getting the skills honed.

Good idea mate, see if you can get Minter up there to train you with his awesome Jedi MX skills.
