Frosty National's report

**FROSTY:Me** · 27th January 2007, 09:09

Back from the nationals finally.
Anybody concidering giving it a crack I can't recomend it enough.
The experience is well worth it.
The chance to experience the south island tracks whilst rubbing shoulders with the best racers New Zealand has to offer is priceless.
ive ridden on 4 tracks I just love-each for its own reason.
My race results dont reflect just how much fun I've had nor just how much
I've learned so much my head feels like its going to explode.
At national level the intensity of the racing is so much higher than any club level meeting.
Nelson street races were mind blowing with such a fantastic atmosphere,Teratonga has one corner that just goes on forever--You are cranked on your side for so long.levels has a chicane that totally did my head in -still does. And Ruapuna--OMG I loove that place -Ill stand corrected but I think there is 14 corners and a lot of them in quick succession. There is one corner that you literally drop down a bomb hole out of sight then come flying back into view--
Ill do a propper report when my head stops spinning
I need to thank a couple of people who made it possible.
Nicko -who has a few ideas about this racing lark and diddnt mind sharing his knowledge with a less experienced rider.
Speedygirl for putting us up for days on end -and letting me trash her gargre for a few days.
A tonne of people in Christchurch who made,fixed or did work on my bike.
Trumpy for the emergency peg repairs and running me up a new set of footpegs after my muppet moment in Taupo.
Madduck--what can i say there.She was pit crew extrordinair.
From a person who could barely check her own tyre pressures 18 months ago she became someone who I quite literally trusted my life to.
