Wiggle Enduro 6 Hour 2009

Back from a sunny weekend at Catton Park, but I got there Saturday morning ready to get the pictures for the Thunder run and for a second i thought I might actually be seeing some thunder. The heavens opened for the first hour before the race and i though oh no its going to be a mud bath, but the ground was so dry it didn't even touch it.Then after then Thunder run had set off i was a little shocked to see people lining up on the start line with their dogs? Im sure this is cheatingSo after the run it was time to get the bike out and go for a ride around the course, but at the end of the second lap i was really enjoying the course. I asked Chris if she would mind me racing and not doing pictures for the enduro? hahaha i was soon put back in place ;)Well done to the Yeti boys taking to the podium,third in mens pairs .
