Auckland Buckets 15-16 May

Apart from all the falls what great weekend. Knee was no better this morning so thaought I better head off to the physio. Nothing to major just a medial collateral ligament sprain/strain/tear/whatever. I go back Wedensday when the swelling goes down a bit and she can get a bit of a better look

Never fear Carl Ive got a video of the race where you clipped Daniel's wheel and it shows your off well, I will put it up tonight when I get home from work.

I look foward to seeing that

So do I.
Pumba. I don't recon the bump coming out of the infeild is any worse than it was by the way, My problems there were likely caused by the loose axle nut.

I had a total blast at the last meeting. Wearing a tinted visor you couldn't see me grinning from ear to ear. Was getting pissed with myself for some dumb things I did, and was surprised at the end of the day I hadn't been knocked off (I know it's going to happen, but I guess I'm in a different grade from Henk, so maybe I'm safe hahaha).
Next meeting a couple of other females should be joining me - one excuse from one of them was she came off her dirt bike and injured herself.

Michelle, the bike looks awesome. Henk's obviously been busy . Love the colour. Great that you are already feeling comfortable out there - it just feels better every time.

Great to see the photos, Henk (as I missed it) - much appreciated. Awesome new camera, the Canon 550D. You were riding hard in the wet - in one of the few photos of you in action, on the other side of the camera.

I hope it is dry next time as I'll have my tuned, go-faster, bike ready . I won't keep up with you if it is wet!

You can also try out my 200mm f2.8 prime lens on the 550D which will be perfect for Mt Wellington.

My bike is still in bits and being breathed on .

as promised a video of one of the A grade races, sorry for the basis of the video around me but ah yeah.
Looks like you hit the ground quite hard Carl
Enjoy

save all the clicking

Nice work on the video. Man no wonder it hurt.

It does confirm for me that I was getting way more drive out of that corner than Nathenial. Reality is though I should have been on the outside beacuse there was never going to be one on the inside. (shit that sounds familier, almost like this has happened to me before)
