Thanks WMCC! That was a fun race. Totally enjoyed racing in a ladies only race for the first time. Great track with nothing too tricky so everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. It did rain a little but I didn't even notice as I was having so much fun! Will definitely be back to race again next year!!

I think I was in a clearing or something at one stage when it started drizzling. I looked to the heavens and thanked it for cooling me down a little.
First would've been Natasha (again), but no idea who was 2nd etc (hopefully the results will be up tonight or tomorrow).
spiked punch - I do sometimes think about getting a KB tee, as it is nice to figure who's who and a chance to introduce your online persona but then I can't really be stuffed.
Bit sore today (as expected), but not enough to not ride the bucket (I really had a goal of three bikes, three days happening and am stoked I did manage that hehehe).
I think that I'll "try" to make some of the Riverhead rides this summer, as I've figured out that's the end of Woodhill for me this year.

Good on you Spiked Punch for getting out there! So how many girls in the race then? I hear Shannon came second. Who was first and third, tell all!!!

Don't really know, antsy to see the results tho I was kind of nervous beforehand but it was all pretty straightforward in the end. I got a bit confused on the start, we were idling the bikes with hands on head and I was sort of wondering what happened next when all of a sudden the horn went and everyone was away! Was a good experience though and I'm looking forward to the next two man

In the Novice class Caitlyn Walker was first, Shannon second and Rachel Parker third......

Expert first was Tarsh, sorry I don't know the names of the girls in second and third.... anyone else remember?

Thanks! Lap times were about what I thought, second one was the best, first really slow cause of my little fence incident.
Goal for next race is not to hug any wire fences I ran into one in the pits too and got a handlebar in my guts, so embarrassing...

Good on you Sacha for doing this Last year i had every intention on getting bike fit & doing it this year - with Brooky getting right into his racing i just don't get the time on the bike - MAYBE next year!
Not many ladies - i thought there'd be heaps more

Come out next year for sure! Not many girls this year cause of the weather I think. It was meant to be really horrible according to the rain radar, but wasn't all that bad once you were out there. Woodhill is it's own weird little microclimate I think.
Couple of pics from Krad's cellphone:
