Bendigo 12 Hour of Hard Knocks

Our local club's 12 hour which was initially scheduled for March was run on the weekend. It was initially postponed due to extreme heat and fire ban issues, this weekend was a totally different kettle of fish, clear crisp skies, frost and bonfires all round!

The event was organised as a fundraiser to help get our local boy, Robbie Hucker over to Italy for the 

world Championships in July. 

It was a really fun weekend and felt had a huge presence at the race, Matt Wallace and Josh 

Fleming teamed with local gun Trevor Watchman to take out the men's pro 3's, Jaci Low rode a com

mendable 12 laps solo, and myself along with the city 

SLACKER'S, Nik and Muz made up the numbers in the mixed fours category! 

The course was great as a home track always is. Lots of rocks, fast flowing descents, and short punchy climbs, I take my hat off to all the solo riders as it was 

really quite a demanding course to ride repetitively.

Felt City was set up and we had a had huge presence for the day. The racks were chock a block full of felt bikes.

A big thanks to Muz and Nik for making the trip to the country and helping get the felt name out and about, we must definitely do it again sometime!
