Crashed the bloody hire bike on rottnest island and got to visit the rottnest nursing centre, you cant buy that kind of experience. It was a back pedal brake bike and the chain came off going down a big hill when i tried to put the brakes on. That left the bike with no brakes and a sharp corner coming up, i tried to slide the bike towards a bushy area but in the end i got a big cut in my knee plus another in my foot - i dont remeber how i happened exactly but it was lucky i was wearing shoes cos one dunlop volley was shredded. No running for me for a while.

2nd again behind jules this time. A bloody tough race, hot steep thick and rocky. Dies in the last part where jules was strong but the orienteering was starting to flow again.

To stuffed and sore to warm down, had a swim in the ocean instead plus a coke and a pub squash, classic!

Event: AUS National Championship Carnival
