Tasmania Gravity Enduro Series
On Friday the 13/3 and Saturday 14/3 another of Don College's new members of teaching staff, Max Watson, travelled to Maydena Bike Park for the final round of the Tasmania Gravity Enduro Series. Maydena Bike Park is a mountain bike paradise with some of Tasmania’s most dangerous, difficult and technical trails.
In the Open Mens Division, Max placed 3rd for the day and finished the series in 2nd overall just 50 points shy of 1st place. Stage 1 of the race started at 1100m above sea level and competitors were met with a thick blanket of snow. Even though they were covered head to toe in mud by the end of the day, there was still some serious racing! Max rode really well for the day with only a few crashes, as compared to the carnage in the rest of the field! He looks forward to improving next year! Well done.
