This past week has been a short and sweet trip to Salt Lake City Utah for two rounds of the ABA American BMX National rounds. This weekends racing was my last competition before the Olympic Games. The Australian High Performance Olympic Team and our coach Wade Bootes came over here to America for the week as part of our final preparation leading into the games. It was a hard weekend of racing with tough American competition for Lauren Reynolds and myself, 38 degree heat, altitude and wind. Unfortunately day one of racing Alise Post crashed in the final and didn't race day two I hope she pulls up ok! Results:
Day 1: #1st Place
Day 2: #1st Place
Overall I'm happy to take two wins both days here in Utah. Homebound back to Australia let the final stint begin, not long now to the Olympics...getting excited!
