Sea Otter


Just a quick post as I haven't had any internet access. Sea Otter went well. The weather was great aside from the Dual Slalom on Saturday which saw torrential down pours and even the odd touch of hail during qualifying! I was riding well and qualified 4th. I felt fairly confident but Melissa Buhl knocked me out 2nd round. That girl can SPRINT! I finished 5th at the end.

DH went very well this year. It was a British 1 and 2. Rachel Atherton got her sprint on and beat me by 1 second to win the event. Melissa Buhl came in 1 second behind me and Sabrina Jonnier was right behind her. It was great racing!
Anyway, off to pack and get to the airport. Catch this flight and then off to the National in Scotland next weekend.
