24hr Madness

In two weeks time I'll be finishing my preparations for the 24hrs of Oak Valley.

There is something awesome about cranking out lap after lap on a day dedicated only to MTBing. Stopping after every lap for food, to take a break for a rest, and then going out for another lap.

Riding in the dark until you almost fall asleep. Taking a short nap and then watching the sun rise while riding.

Riding through the pain in your legs, hands, knees, back, feet and butt. Trying to ride your lines in singletrack while your concentration is nowhere. Standing and pedalling for 4hrs because it feels like your sitting on the teeth of a shark.
Riding through all this and still having fun. Even if it means you ride the lift to the 1st floor for a couple of days because you just can't walk up the stairs.

Man I can't wait!
