Paramatta Stage 2: Liza top 10?

Sorry for the late post. After the race we had a 2 hour transfer. We didn’t get out of the Paramatta until 8 pm and arrived at the Country Comfort hotel in Terrigal until after 10 p.m.
After a 3 hour transfer from Bathurst to Paramatta yesterday afternoon, VK arrived at the race course excited and ready to ROCK! As ready to ROCK it as we were mentally, the physical aspects of our off season legs came into play late night. Never mind the fact that is was 33 celcius, humid, stick and no breeze when we started racing, the course was a screaming descent with a big chain ring grinder uphill. The surges last night were kicking my ass. Round the corner, up the hill, round the corner up the hill, AGH!!! There were 30 laps last night; I sprinted 28 of them. Liza and Tiffany rode well at the front. They got a great start and maintained it. The Honda Dream Team maintained control of the front of the race for the night, but Tiffany and Jazzie managed to get the VK name out there a few times. We are not quite sure where Liza placed in the top 5-10 but will find out for sure tonight.

The day leading up to the race:
Tiff and I caravanned with the Auzzie Rider, Nicky (Bella Velo) and a few Kiwis, Slippery Sam and A-Ray. Tiff and I learned several key sayings while on our drive through the Blue Mountain Range. Some of them are:
U-Ball (U-Turn)
Crush it (Drilling it)
Going for a tap (going for a spin)
I totally rate that (that’s cool)
Go knock it up (mix it up in the race)
Fankles (Cankles)

We had lunch in Blackheath in the afternoon. We have ad such great food here. The Turkish bread is amazing along with all the veggies they include in the sammy.

We arrived in Paramatta around 3:30 and would not race until 6. We grabbed our wallets and headed into the city center for a proper coffee and some water. After, we rested in Paramatta Park and learned that the oldest building in Australia is in Paramatta and it was a dairy cottage.

Today we spent the morning eating and checking out the town of Terrigal. I posted some photos on the Vanderkitten FB page. This afternoon we are relaxing, blogging and other social media to keep our fans in the loop. Tonight we race at 7:50 under the lights.

Enjoy
