With only the frame surviving the Yak Attack last year, I've finally got around to rebuilding it...12 months later. Bless.

The cranks are class!

How did you get on in the Yak Attack? Is it as hard as it looks?

Got ill after the first day of racing. Couldn't eat anything for the remainder of the race, lost 8kg in 10 days.

Not an ideal start. It got harder with each day. By FAR the hardest thing I've ever done; but so pleased I finished it.

I wrote a blog entry about the race here: http://jbwilliamz.blogspot.com/2010/04/ ... -2010.html

They put it on the singletrack website and got published in a local newspaper and various websites.
