Horrific and awesome.

After run1 we were like drowned rats. Once you accept that and come to terms with it, you just ride. There’s very little mud at BPW so you’re still going hard on trails. We had rivers running down many trails and a couple of puddles that put paddling pools to shame, but it didn’t detract from the day.

Cracking fun having @Beancounter chasing me along with a mates missus.

Hot chili and burgers for lunch, epic!

I collected most of it on my jeans and down my arse crack.

Honestly, that was the worst weather I've experienced at BPW but when you're riding it's still great fun.

Got to clean the bike today. :thumbdown:
