Grant and Lukie finished 1st Male Team and 2nd overall on Saturday after a tough, cold muddy hilly week in the 5 day KEEN "jounrey through the Otways". Never far behind the leaders (who are the current world champions), and despite a few hiccups including Grant riding 120k with a collapsed front fork through the long stage & Luke apparently having some trouble breathing ("my rib is clicking"?) they were both on fine form all week. Top work you guys - Very proud of you.
Testimony to their achievment was Lukie having AT LEAST THREE drinks on Saturday night, and Grant being very excited about the prizes.
Del & Stew also went very fast in the Keen 1 Day Exposé leading all the way 'till Del left the Course Notes floating somewhere in Bass Strait, and Stew decided we should visit the top of the wrong hill between checkpoints Y & Z. But we never said we could navigate.... Fast in the wrong direction earned us 3rd Place. It would have been SO SO cool to take out the one day as alongside Grant & Lukie's 5 day performance... but hey..
A long blow by blow tale of the 5 day journey is sure to follow. Meanwhile we'll be preparing to meet what looks to be an all out line up of Australia's best teams at GeoQuest in a month's time...
