Had a really busy day today. Woke up at 7pm and built up the Chase from most of the bits off of the Dialled MX24R when it was built up as my Friend wanted to get his Son to test the bike to see if he wants to buy it.
I then had to get to the track for a training session at 9:30-11:30 which was really fun although I was struggling due to not being able to breathe properly due to whatever bug I have been dealing with this week.
The track was running really fast and I was able to consistently manual the first straight today and the S&M was feeling spot on and I was so happy to be back on it 🙂 I also did a couple of third straights and got them pretty clean! I almost got a manual on the first jump on the third straight today which I really struggle with!
After training we did some track maintenance as the weeds had started to take over the track!
After the maintenance we started running gates and I was feeling really sore but decided to ride anyway which proved to be a bad idea 🙁
When I was trying to iron out some kinks in my gate (namely being too bent over when I snap!) I snapped on the first gate and due to the new more upright position my core was way more engaged and something went in my abs which was super painful and meant that I could not ride any more.
I don’t think that it is too serious but I am going to keep off of the bike this week to give myself time to heal so that hopefully it isn’t a problem at the National this weekend!
I plan to ice my abs as much as possible this week to help with the recovery.
I am also feeling pretty rough still so I am hoping to use this week to recover as well!
