What? You're kidding. I've got months of procrastination to get through before I can start training for Karapoti.

Start training now or procrastinate... whatever suits you better.
I cannot afford procrastinating because I'm still a beginner in Mountain biking, I'm even a beginner in bike riding! So lots of space for improvement for a 44 year old...
