Today was the Woodhill Downhill fundraiser race for both myself and Sophie Tyas out on the SPCA trail at Woodhill. It was a huge success with a turnout of roughly one hundred riders. Super stoked with the support of everyone who raced and helped to make the event happen. I had a full but fun day helping set up, process registrations, time the race runs and set down. It was great to see everyone enjoying themselves despite the rain at the beginning of the day, nobody's spirits were dampened and everyone seemed to be having a great time.
The 16inch race (on small bikes with 16inch wheels) was especially fun to watch! I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who came out today. Thanks to the organisers, truck drivers, timers, marshals and everyone else who helped make the event happen. Thanks to Avanti Plus Waitakere, Department of Cycling, Bikes International Ltd, Floe, Kenda, Five Ten, Chromag and Sportspro for their support and providing products for prizes. Also a huge thank you to Woodhill Bikeparks for their support. A big thanks to the Auckland Downhill Club committee for all their help in the organisation and running of this race. I really appreciate everyone's assistance in helping me to achieve my goal of competing in the Downhill World Champs in Switzerland in August. :)
I am so glad you had such a great turnout, and i know i am so excited you are off to worlds ! Nx
