hi there, this is my first report

I liked the course today, and especially the technical section, as me being on the mountain bike i could gain some time on the lads with cross bikes

we where all ready to go then joe home came in late so they shouted go and i was just about to get going and joe home came flying past and knocked me up the hill then i came back down and crashed into this lad and i went rolling down the hill. by the time we got my handle bars out of the lads wheel they where half way round the course. so my dad asked the man if we could going the next lap and he said yes.

then they came round the corner and we started the race but by then my leg was sore, so we where racing and then i dried to change gear but my shifter was broken so i couldn't change gear. Then i stopped at the side to see if my dad could fix it, but he couldn't so i had to do my race with my three gears on the front chain ring. witch made it harder and i was getting cramp in the leg i landed on.

over all i had a good race in the end, and managed to do some over taking when i rejoined the race.

anyways i finished the race.

hope you liked my report here some pics
