This weekend was the 3rd SA Downhill held in George. The course was well laid out and longer than anything I'd ridden before. It was a great fun and probably the best course I have experienced to date. Practice on Saturday was very wet and slippery, with ruts forming in the soft sections. Race day on Sunday and the rain cleared to make way for a gusting wind, which proved formidable on the open top section. I blew my first run with my pedal clipping a rock, just after this shot, and sending me over the bars. My second run was fairly clean, but just not fast enough. It was a great experience and I look forward to racing this course again.
