Mautern Season Finishing

October 20th, 2011

Last weekend I packed my stuff the last time for this year together and drove to Mautern a little village between St. Michael and Liezen. A new track have been built by soe locals in a nature park and I was keen to see it. My expectations got fullfilled the track was long, technical, challangeing but what really disappointed me where the chair lift which took 24 minutes up and the temperatures in the morning, for sure minus, because the half of the track was frozen. But with right cloth and a nice place to stay i could resist and really enjoyed this race. I felt fine and took it very easy. I didn’t crash, did the big gap jump which many men didn’t do and placed on the podium, so check check check I was allright. Petra placed first, Elke second, and then me. In the overall, which I just found there that we have an Austria Extreme cup I placed 3rd too and got some money from the ÖRV: Thanks for that:-)

I say goodbye to this racing year and goodbye to Alpine Commencal. To sum it up it was year with ups and downs but luckily more ups than downs, no big injuries.

So I will keep you updated what i doing next year and which races, but I am pretty sure I move back to DH and will do some enduro and 4x races. bye bye Lene

Slovakian Race in Male Lucivna

September 22nd, 2011

Last weekend I raced in Slovakia. 3 1/2 half hours away from my town. I arrived very late about one o clock but it was enough to do couple of runs. Super nice new builded track, very technical and steep. The sun was shining the whole weekend and so the track was very dry, but better that than wet,  because it would have been “fun“ to ride on the off camber parts. We were 6 women. In my qualification run I crashed and got stoked between two trees. In my race run all went well, I did just few mistakes, like braking at some sections to much. I finished 3rd. half second behind the second one and 8 behind the first one. I was satisfied with the podium place and it was great practice.

Bye bye Lene

World Champs in Champery /Eurobike/ next year

September 12th, 2011

Last weekend I was racing at the Worlds in Switzerland. I was nominated by national team, so super happy about that, because yeah World champ means the Worlds best riders..

I was nominated for both disciplines downhill and 4x but i thought doing one and doing this well is better then stress around with both and do both bad. hmm I am still not sure if it was the right desicion because I ended up 11th in 4x which was absolutly not that what I had expected. Medal was my goal and after my qualify in Val di Sole 4th place I thought it could happen, why not. I was well prepared and felt good. But yes thats 4x and it didn’t work out for me this time. I didn’t feel good on the track and I switched around my bikes 4x fully or hardtail 1 time - that was my question.. I got a new 4x fully frame from commencal (thanks for that commencal andorra). In the finals i decided to got with the hardtail- i had a good gate but let the first corner open and I got 3rd and the track didn’t have many options to pass, so I stayed 3rd and was out.

I was disappointed but how i said thats racing and next time I make it.

In the same night from friday to saturday my team mate Hannes and I drove (okay he drove i slept most of the time, thanks Hannes ) to ther Eurobike and we arrived there just in time. Running around to see all my sponsors, get the deals, get new deals and the most important thing get a new frame sponsor, because I left the team Alpine Commencal.

I want to say thank you to the two physios Angie and Margot, Elke the best room mate every, Bernd and Heinz the coaches and to all my sponsors, Alex from Acros, Roland from Syncros, Matt from Royal,  Denise from Iriedaily, Hans Jörg from DVS and Ogio, Axel from Go Pro, Guiseppe from Spy, Tom from 661, Helge from Shimano, Niccolo from San Marco, Andreas from Michelin, Martin from Fox Shox, Daniel and Chris from e13, Anja from Urban Tool, Dennis from Formula, Kathi from Wagrainbikepark, Michael from Chiba Vision, my mechanic Matrin from Suspension Clinics, Roland the trainer from the Galaxy fitness center and Michi the best bike shop boss ever (ciclopia)

I hope I didn’t forget some one if yes I am sorry.

Where is my luck?

August 22nd, 2011

Last weekend I raced in Val di Sole. (ITA) It was all perfect. I saw an old friend elisa canepa again, I had my mechanic Martin with me, who supported me perfect and the sun was burning down. I trained well and qualified perfectly on friday with an nearly perfect run. 4th place from 25 girls. So really happy about that. Race day …still all good. first heat still all good. got easy in the next round. Semi final… it got worse. I had a puncture in my run, so didn’t make it in the finals. So started in the small final, where I HAD A CAMERA MAN IN FRONT OF THE TRAFFIC LIGHT!!!!! so i couldn’t see the red light. Because I can just start visual I totally missed my gate and finished 8th… WHAT A fu….sh….I protest at the bottom but the ITALIEN UCI (very important italien UCI people, which were absolut unprofessional the whole weekend) didn’t care and they didn’t make a rerun. (the day after i talked with the woman, who has something to say at the UCI - forgot her name- and she said that she would have made a rerun for sure and that she was very sorry for what happened. hmm what can i buy with this sorry. NOTHING!!! So what does that means for me??? now. I didn’t get a chance to get on the podium, I am super angry, frustrated and rode so much better than to be at the end 8th….. and sorry i forgot a “small ” detail, which makes me broken…  I can pay me the World champs costs by myself, because I needed a top 6 result to get a fund. Yeah thanks to the Cameraman, who i better never meet again in my life.

Champery I will try to kill it with all this anger in me… see you Lene
