Entering XTERRA German Tour

After my big knockout in the Buschhütten streetfight i went back on the dirt for the first XTERRA German Tour race in Chemnitz far east in good old Germany!

Day one was big photoshooting again and we hac big fun posing together and getting our bikes fixed by our new Tech guy Jebu.
This guy is magic with all that spins and clicks and rocks. You shouls check out his stuff on www.speen.de!

After seeing the course for Sunday i was really hot for racing. Sweet single tracks- no serious trouble, only fun riding!

As we were doing a Cross Duathlon the first run was more to check out the enemy! I stayed close to the front and waited fot the bike.
Riding out with Czech Jan Kubicek and former Cross Team member Wingenfeld i was the first of us and kept a close look behind. But the rest was playing it save so i tested my two companions on the first real climb and went when i see them dropping of.

Pushing my own pace felt really great and i could even save some energy for a fast run in the end.

I won with a good 2 minute lead over Kubicek and Dietz feeling back on the right track for the Europeans in 3 weeks!
