TBH I'd be happy with that now

6th place for the boy today in what was a properly competitive field. Way happy with that.
The lad who beat him last week into 2nd was in 8th today, so great result for the boy.
I felt as today would have some tech and fast lads, inside top 10 would be golden. So 6th we can take as a top result.
We came home happy.

Brilliant job

Still a bazillion updates, but currently i've got to bite my tongue.

Interesting one though is a few race plans/developments that i can currently provide and the rest of it will become apparent at a later date

The boy is working crazy hard at developing his strength, core, overall fitness, with multiple classes designed specifically for young athletes lol.. It's basically a fancy name for 'teenager circuits' to me, but what do i know.

He's also coming round after i pointed him to an article where Bruni was saying his favourite bike is a Levo e-bike.. The lad is now seeming to get his head around this and the benefits it can bring of the ability to session trails, get to trails and home easier and doing 10 runs instead of 3 before being too tired. So he's curently headed off on the jaunt to the woods they play at, on the Liv e-bike for the day... With the plan of practicing certain techniques and trails for trickier tech. We've both been in the woods over the weekend with the rake and the shovels creating a new tech trail, steep and what looks to me to be almost impossible lol..

We're now sitting waiting for the National DH dates along with Pearce dates, but as well as that if we can manage it in terms of clashes, we're doing a full season of Southen Enduro or Welsh Enduro series... Depends which ones work out best in terms of dates.

Next year is going to be absolutely incredible i think.... Time of our lives for both of us.

Once he got his head around being on an ebike with non DH geometry, tyres, handling, he seemed to have a bloody good time and got 3X the number of trails in he'd normally get... So i think it worked quite well as a plan.
