Yes! I did it! I went in my first downhill mountain bike race last Sunday at The Lea, just south of Hobart. I came 2nd (out of 2 women) Check out the attached picture. Notice the very well strapped up right wrist which is still giving me a bit of trouble since Mt Buller in January. And the lack of body armour or even sleeves to protect my upper body. So I did ride carefully but reasonably fast - for me. I was the slowest rider on the day but I didn't fall off and my time was still respectable.
I had a great day. Just thought I'd share.
