I tried to make a non-stop run but I just wasn’t up to it yet. This includes a nice smooth section Theo and I found the last time we were here.

Blue Mountain Yesterday and RSP this morning.

This time we added a section of single-track. Good workout today.

It was a very hot and humid weekend down at NJMP for round two. The threat of rain loomed both mornings and Saturday started with very wet practice sessions but by race time the track was dry. We were wet the entire weekend though, we just never stopped sweating. The recent mountain-bike training paid off and I took a podium spot in all six races I entered. Saturdays GTL race was great fun as I had to battle the entire 25 minutes with another SV, a 125 and a 250, it was the most racing I’ve done in a long time.

Here is Theo and I with our Lightweight Formula 40 trophies.

I never did a report on the first round, it was also a pretty good weekend with 4 podiums in six races. I dont remember many details but it was drama free.

This turned out to be a route with good variety of long uphill grades for good cardio with a variety of surfaces. Much of it was fire road and wide trail with the section coming up from Shepard Pond being a nice intermediate single track. I had to rest a few times and walk a little bit but I should be able to do this route non-stop without putting a foot down eventually. It is quick so going twice is a possibility too.
