Crash, sponsors and more km's

Yeah I ate some concrete.

Big bastard pot hole snuck up on me while I was reaching for a bottle. Sneaky pot hole. This was about 100km into a 180km day so with the crash included into that ride I was a little tired at the end of the day. Knocked up Te Awumutu racing during the ride as well which was pretty choice. The racing is awesome - hard from the gun and has a pretty nasty finish up a false flat. Managed to roll 2nd with Brad Carter being up the road.

Woke up rather stiff this morning but the sun was shining so it was time for pedal in the beautiful Waikato sunshine! Got a solid 100km in with Sean Joyce and discovered this wee beauty!


Also if you are ever in Te Awamutu and are wanting quite an amazing brew I do recommend dropping into Empire Cafe. Very good coffee indeed. And caramel slice....

In other more exciting news, the Bike NZ U23 programme has just got the news that Trek Europe will be on board as a bike sponspor for our 2011 season! So we will be rolling shiny new Treks which is choice!

Just over two and half weeks until we catch the big bird to Belgium so another solid week here in the Tron then it is off to Northland for the BDO Northland Tour then winging south to Chch for a few days at home with the family then no more NZ for 6 months! Going to miss the NZ winter...they do go good.

Cheers for reading...you don't really have to...quite optional.
