JOEY GOUGH - BMX & MTB GIRL

Since Monday I've been over in france with Team GB. We have been on a little pre race camp just to get the team all together and ride some good tracks before the first Euro round in St Ettienne this weekend. On tuesday we went to montelimar track which was fast, steep and deep! It was pretty gusty up there too which made it even more challenging at times.

Wednesday we hit up the gym in the AM and in the afternoon headed to Mours track to join in on one of their club sessions. With no wind and blue skys the fast flowing track was a treat to ride! We could even ride till just after dusk with their full flood light set up. There was coaching going on and so many good riders, it is a really cool set up they have there. Thursday we headed back to montelimar, mainly to brush up our random gates for the race this weekend.

We are now in St Ettienne, practice was late last night for us. The track didn't ride as good as it looked but still not bad, no soft spots and its riding pretty fast so thats good for an indoor!! It kind of goes from one extreme to the other, some really mellow jumps with no lips and some steep and deep jumps too. Not much pedalling thats for sure!

First day of racing is today but we don't even start practice till 5. It's gonna be a late one.
