22 January 2012
When I found out that MTBA had introduced the revamped National Series in the format of the All Mountain Cup, my ears pricked up and my interest spiked. Travelling to Perth for round 1 was not going to happen, just too busy and already locked in many plans not to mention chilling out from a hectic October-November.
But Mt Buller in January 2012 was very appealing, I had raced here for the past few years in the Bike Buller Festival as well as run camps here, so I knew I would love it. A Super D, A XCO event and finishing off with a point to point race with the best trail ever - Stone Fly in it.
This race was the beginning of coming back into some form after smashing myself at the Croc Trophy in late October...
