Yesterday was a rest day so didn't get up to much. Went to the mall so that was pretty much the highlight of our day haha. There are heaps of South African riders staying at Wensleydale Guest Lodge with us so it's pretty cool. When we went out for a recovery ride there were about 15 of us so it made it interesting.
Today we had to wake up at 6:30am to be at the track early for a practice session which started at 9:00am. It was the coldest morning since we have been here so good riding weather as it's closer to New Zealand temperature. Got to the track and took forever to try and find a way in but finally found an entrance haha, then got our number plates and wrist/bike bands so sussed all that out. Got taken to the New Zealand house where we will be based for the week, which is probably in the most furtherest place away from the track haha. Was so excited to ride the track, went out fast on my first lap and nearly died on the second jump, took it slow from there haha. I can tell there are going to be quite a few deaths on it as it's pretty big and pretty much impossible to pump. Should make for some good racing. ot the gate and first jump sussed, and have the last two straights as best as I can get them, just need to work on the first two straights tomorrow and it should be good.
