I must say I was a little worried about this one... 9days, 910kilos! Something different and new for me! Luckily I had Paul Cordes as my partner, he is also currently my coach so I was sure that he wouldn't try to break me.

Day 1, apparently a neutral day and we were already taking shots. Things didn't look so great anymore. 

Day 2 went even worse with Paul having issues with his pedal just before the last waterpoint. We decided to sit up and enjoy the rest of the day out there. 

Ok, so maybe it wasn't really going that bad, but then we got our act together or maybe rode into some shape, suddenly we were both feeling pretty good.

Even thou we planned a steady ride down to Scotsburg we got invloved in a few serious battles out there. Some beter riding and a bit of luck saw us moving into 4th over all after day 6. Game on!

We came close to jumping on the podium the last day. Itec got us with less than 10k's to go. Our legs wasn't really working anymore by this time. Anyway we made it all the way and finished in 4th place, must say i've never been so happy to get on the beach!

Thanks transact for making this experience possible for us and to Paul for some great riding and motivation when needed and Andre Cordes from Epic Sports Cycle shop, our mechanic / team managment for making sure everything and the bikes ran smooth all the way!
