Auckland MTB Series #2 Hunua

It was a good race this weekend out at Hunua, the course was the reverse of what they ran at the national round in Feb so a bit of a change to the usual, also this time it was a lot wetter which made for a good challenge. The parts that weren't gravel, were nice and muddy (my favourite!) and there was a couple of pretty gnarly root sections which I really loved the challenge of trying to ride! The race start was pretty intense with everyone battling to get into the single track first becuase there wasn't much passing after that. The 11km loop consisted of a lot of tight single track, a couple of gavel roads to link it up and with a grassy field to finish. (with a mean headwind!!) Thanks to the Auckland MTB Club for such a great race. Looking forward to the final round at Slater Road! :) Next up is the Whaka 100, it's gonna be one EPIC ride, can't wait! 100kms of Rotorua will be AWESOME!!
