Season Wrap Up

So, with my final race of 2011 done and dusted it's time to say a few thank you's to all the people who have helped make this year happen and be successful. Not everything has gone to plan and that is mainly due to an unfortunate crash in Les Gets which resulted in a broken clavicle and a metal plate being screwed in to hold me together. In spite of this I have thoroughly enjoyed being back mountain bike racing and i'm looking forward to 2012 and the many challenges that will be thrown my way.

These are all the people I owe a huge amount of gratitude for there help and generosity, check out there websites where you will find some of the best cycling products on the market at the moment.

Rock and Road Cycles - Bridge of Allen - Well stocked and knowledgeable shop kindly supplied me with Giro shoes, helmet and gloves.
