WC #1 Albstadt!

When the rain started about 1h before the start I felt ready to rock. Got a good start and entered the first trail in 3rd position. I must admit that I got a bit surprised it was that slippery out there. I knew it was going to be slick but not that bad. I messed up a corner and went down and after that I had a bit of a problem finding my technical skills. Rode a bit all over the place and decided to take a stop in the pit to change front wheel. I was in about 13th I think but lost a few places during the stop. Got it going rather good again but suffered.

I must say that I am a bit disapointed. Thought I had a bit more to go than 20th but that´s racing. I keep on working and it we be a better day. New chance already next week in Nove Mesto, CZE.

Thanks for all the support out there! A huge thanks to www.giantproxcteam.com

Tyskland

I onsdags hoppade vi i bilen och styrde ner till södra Tyskland. Världscup nr 1 i Albstadt till helgen.
Jag har haft en bra känsla en tid och ser fram emot första racet. Banan ser ut att bli blöt, vilket jag gillar. Det blir hård drabbning på söndag :)
