This years King of the Goobers. I was wondering who it was going to be a while back and he really was the first name that came to mind. Very deserving, well done Micky, you've got big shoes to fill, myself and Smithers will show you the secret handshake! Brilliant trophy too!
Well done Micky!
yeah the f uckers who come up with these things !!
Thaks very much Don for youre kind words!I never had any idea that I'd get the King of the Goobers/Best Improved Rider award.All I did was progress from the easy spins,to the intermediate spins before ending up on the savage spins.I took every bit of advice from all the experienced/savage members in Epic and just kept going out on spins.I remember my 1st Tuesday night savage spin on the loop from Lamb Doyles to Enniskerry and back on the road.I got dropped,kept going on my own and arrived back at Lamb Doyles,with only Fergal left in the carpark about to drive off!!LOL Returned the next Tuesday and tryed again!!So yeah,I got stuck into the Development races,the NPS's,the Club League,the Cooley Thriller,the Savage spins etc etc,but if it was'nt for experienced Epic members either dragging me around some mountain or giving advice I would'nt be at the fitness level I am now.50% was me riding the bike,but the other 50% was encouragement/advice from my fellow Epic members,thanks to you all.
