ELASSONA 6 HOURS MTB CHALLENGE

AT 12-10-08 I RACED AT ELASSONA 6 HOURS MTB CHALLENGE. IT WAS A RELAY RACE OF PAIRS IN WHICH THE PAIRS DECIDED HOW MANY ROUNDS THEY WILL DO EACH TIME. THE WINNER IS THE PAIR WITH MOST ROUNDS IN THE LIMITED TIME OF 6 HOURS. THE COURSE WAS 10.7 klm WITH TECHNICAL TRAILS, STREAMS, UPHILLS AND DOWNHILLS, IN THE BEAUTIFUL FOREST OF ELASSONA. WE MANAGED TO MAKE 9 ROUNDS AND PLACED FIRST IN THE CATEGORY. THIS WAS MY 3rd MEDAL AND THE FIRST CUP FOR THE SEASON. ALSO THIS WAS THE FIRST RACE FOR MY NEW BIKE, A SCOTT RANSOM 20 CARBON. I LL WRITE A REVIEW ABOUT IT AT THE END OF THE SEASON. STAY TUNED...
