I’m just home from DR. Claes... he gave me the green light to ride this week and weekend!

I’m really pumped! The last few days I’ve been mountain biking which has gone good.

I’ve also been doing rock climbing and the shoulder has held up great so I’m not expecting too many problems tomorrow when I hit the track.

You may have heard a lot of rumours that I was riding in Olmen last weekend and could only do 2 laps and had to stop with the pain... ha ha Well half it was true – I was at Olmen at the weekend but not on the bike.

It was my best friend and cousin riding. Jamie did four laps not two and he had to stop because he was a bit out of shape, not because of the pain...

Shannon managed a maximum of eight but they both had fun and it was good to be back at the track even if I wasn’t riding – I just needed to smell those fumes.

Well that’s it. I’ve got work to do but I’ll check in and let you know how riding goes tomorrow.

Cheers,

Josh
