Arrived in canbera, to some pretty nice weather for winter time in Australia. It was sunny but cold. The wind on this track to the enemy though as there is a lot of pedalling along flat ground and a head wind would be bad news.

Passing the time in Canberra was hard to do but practice and resting takes up  lots  so not to bad.  Also we had the pump track world champs to attend to on Wednesday night, it was held in a back yard in a secret location in Canberra. The whole event was pretty well organized for a back yard bash and was on a fun track.  All was going well up until the final run. I qualified first which was cool so I was looking at a world champs title and 2500 buck prize to look forward to if I could keep my self together. I manage to do that, but the timing guy didn’t.  my run felt good and was pretty exited to see my time, but there was not time. I was devastated. Knowing my run was close to perfect and the fact I was looking at having to do it again tired and angry and pretty frustrating. We had video evidence of my first run time been a 40.80, half a second faster than sick micks but nothing I could do about it.   I had to give it another go, still tired from my first run I had no chance.  Robbed from the title and cash. Gutted. Oh well. Moving on not salty and bitter about that one very much….

Practice on the real worlds is going good feeling fast and pretty keen to lay a run down In the final on Sunday. My timed run was good felt smooth and got most of my lines together. Just need to find something for the last 600metre flat sprint at the end but im hoping that will come to me on the day.
