National Champs

Bushlove is a mighty mighty racing unit you say. Bushlove is always up for the races you say.

Well it appears from teh mighty ranks of Bushlove, that I, and I alone will be going to the National MTB champs this weekend in Nelson.

Square upon thy shoulders doth the glory of Bushlove rest. But have no fear, for I will not shirk my duty, the great Mo-llet, and the calves of doom shall represent the mighty, and stand for all that is good and true in our great and muddy world.

I have some picks for this weekend. Please bear in mind, that some people may not be racing, or even some that might, that I don't know about and hence have not crossed my mind. Prediction is not an exact science, and I'm just plain making this shit up

Elite men 1st, Stu Houltham FTW, followed in my Mikee Northcott, being chased hard by Big Gav in 3rd. Clinton if he races will twist his bike to bits with his mighty shanks.

Elite Ladiezzz, If Anika turns up all bets are off, and I hope like hell even my lap times beat hers

Under 23 men, Carlos to crash twice and win

Under23 Women, 1st Supa Sam, smashing everyone, with the fastest chick time overall, 2nd Monique Avery after giving Sam a good race, 3rd WILL BE Raerae Morrison

Juniors, Dirk and Paddy to battle it out at front, Dirk to clear out and smash it, Adrian Letiffe (sp) to pull 3rd with 1 broken spoke

Junior Girls, Saschato ride away from everyone

U17 men, Midget man Cooper to win by 6:34mins, 2nd fastest junior overall, Tom Tom Bradshaw for 2nd

Vet 1, If Cabin shows and races even given his dislike for nats races, he'll win (unless Broken Lung Crossling sticks a branch in his wheel, ya listening Ed!!) Slacky and the rest of the old people to fight the good fight. The glory of Bushlove should shine thru. But it should be a good close race otherwise, with Hiskey sitting it out, and prepping for his impending overall win at the Poti.

DH, well I barely know who's who these days, but K Bizzle for the mens win with a Rankin in 2nd (if he shows) and the balding Ginga Dodzy in 3rd.
