Here's a little Vid put together by Tom Emrys-Evans from a few weeks back when he came up to Mt Buller. Was great to do some filming on the trails I've worked on up here. The Specialized Enduro just loves slaying the descents up here and is some much fun to ride. Huge props to Tom for an insane job filming and editing!

Bike Buller
Once a year Mt Buller trails get a work out for Bike Buller and it was awesome to see so many people riding up here.
I raced in the Super D on Sunday which was heaps of fun. I underestimated the amount of pedalling throughout the course but still loved the race. It was a little congested in the single track up top but once I hit the Delatite trail I could make up some lost time. I had a killer run and was completely flogged when I crossed the line.
I was stoked to end up in 3rd place, just over a minute off 1st place.
Thanks to Shannon from ATC for getting my Specialized Enduro running fast for the race.

Royal Apparel
Thanks to Rob at Jet Black I'm now rocking some fresh new Royal gear.
I got to put it to the test over the weekend and wasn't disappointed. The whole get up is really comfortable and looks awesome.
Really stoked to be running the new Royal stuff and if you want to check it out head to,

What's New?
After returning from Canada 6 months ago and returning to work for World Trail I've managed to line up a few new things. I took a step back from racing this season for a few reasons but I feel it was for the best. I was lucky enough to sort out a new Specialized Enduro through World Trail and I think it was the best decision I ever made. The Enduro has got me stoked on riding more than ever, it's just super fun to ride.
I've also just scored a Specialized Demo through All Terrain Cycles up in Mansfield, Shannon from ATC is one of the big drivers in making Mt Buller one of the best Mountain Bike destinations in the country and considering I spend roughly 6 months over summer up at Buller it works out great. Thanks to Greg from SOLA Sports i'll continue running Fox Shox Suspension and it will be all dialled in thanks to Ken from Tekin Suspension. I'll also be running Royal apparel thanks to Rob from Jet Black, their new gear looks insane so I can't wait to test it out on the trails.
So it's taken me a while to get everything sorted but I've been riding XC a lot in the last 6 months and feel like i'm ready to race again. I might try enter the last Vic State Series and see if I remember how to race DH.
