I just remembered I had a blog so I guess I should try updating it for the first time in well over a year.
Last weekend was the 2nd to last round of the NORBA series here in the US and I finally got my first podium, 2nd place only 0.33 of a second away from win which was a little disappointing but a podium is still good. This has put me up into 5th overall for the series currently which im stoked with so hopefully ill be able to stay in the top 5 at the end.
Ive had a few ups and downs this summer in the us, a 7th place at Angel Fire with a crash was an example of both, a top 10 was good but know i could of been on the podium was a disapointment again. Deer Valley was similar, after qualifying 10th with a pretty stacked field I knew I could make up time but in the final I crashed and snapped my fork through the arch so that ruined my race run and also lost me a lot of valuable points for the overall.
With one race to go in the norba series then world champs its almost time to return home to NZ and h
ave a break from racing which im looking forward to.
