Well- i'm pretty hooked on this thing called endurance racing, or 24 hour mountainbiking races!:D such a tough- but fun thing to do!
Last weekend- three guys an i, competed in the only 24 hour race in Denmark, and got a respectable 11'th place, out of 24 starting teams- all of which finished! 37 rounds of 11 k's... but due to mechanical failures and one round in total darkness due to unproperly charged batteries, we lost an secure 8'th place- but what the heck- sheit happens!
Next year- i'll be even fitter- sharper, and better looking ;)
From left: Yours truly- Laurits "Jay Leno Chinguy", Thomas "Trial" and Jesper "I haven't been training at all!"...

Just finished first round of the whole race- actually being the leader at a point... but not for long... lungs bursted after winning the "Le Mans Style" start... :D
