Where did we leave off? Oh yeah, right… Well, yesterday was tough – proper tough. We managed to nab a load of 2011 Giant’s and threw them in the back of our Chevy Suburban (the burb!) before heading to Bootleg Canyon. Sadly though, by the time that we’d collected the bikes etc it was approaching 12 noon.
I’d love to say good morning or evening to you all but to be honest, I’ve know idea what time it is!
All I do know is that I crawled out of bed at 03:55 GMT this morning and it’s now just gone 20:00 in our hotel/motel/Holiday Inn in Boulder City.
We love a bit of urban DH. Watching the gravity boys rattling their teeth through the favelas of Rio or the stepped streets of Mexico City is always a laugh. And incredible riding to boot.

If you work at MBUK it helps to have a sense of humour. The humour, in fact, of a 9 year old boy…
