The storms of the last few days seem to have passed and, although we woke up to a grey sky this morning, the important thing is that it didn't rain over night. It was today the town really woke up too, people started pouring in and by mid-morning the queue for the lift up was growing by the minute. Most of the riders who have nine-to-five jobs got here last night and it was the time to get a few quick runs in before racing starts for real tomorrow... This evening was the prologue, a forty second or so sprint from the lower slopes into the heart of the town. If you're wondering what that has to do with enduro racing, the answer is that it brings a little bit of the action to the people who live in the town as the real action tomorrow happens up in the mountains and in the forests where it's not easy to go and watch.
