Yo!

The 2010 world champs get serious in Mont Saine Anne  pretty much from today with the big deal starting over the weekend. I’m pretty sure FreeCaster are screening all the events you just have to make sure you get the time conversion right!

Transition Bike’s wrap for Windham with some pretty mixed luck. Will Jill kill it at MSA?

This is balls out epic.

A few photos of some local track work that went on this weekend. Looks great! The world needs more trail builders.

MTBCUT’s edit of qualifying at Windham. A few nasty wipe outs in this one. Mik Hannah’s made me feel a bit crook. Poor bugger.

Some pics from this morning’s session. See the rides page for all the rest.

So, after the Orthopedic surgeon’s appointment yesterday I have a plan. Good news is no surgery required. Then the bad news -  10 weeks of frustration ahead:

week 1 – Ortho appointment, pain killers, ice twice a day, keep the f@cking thing still.

week 2 – repeat steps 2 through 4 above.

week 3 – New x-rays to check healing is going ok. Visit Ortho to make sure shit is going to plan.

Week 4 – If healing start physio, if not healing plan surgery.

Week 5 – More physio, try to work out if anything else is wrong with my shoulder.

Week 6 – More physio, start swimming

Week 7 – Bone is strong enough to ride but not strong enough for contact sports or a crash. Ride at own risk.

Week 8 – See week 7

Week 9 – Should be back on deck with depleted muscle strength in upper body. Begin riding and building strength.

Week 10 - Shred.

Get a bicycle.  You will not regret it if you live.
