Our Middle Eastern correspondent Jimmy has only gone and won a race! We'll never hear the last of it. ;-) Oh and he's also snapped another frame see here for the frame picture or click the "READ MORE" button below for the race report. He's off to do the Cape Epic now so we'll see how he gets on with that? Good luck Jimmy.

This year saw a new high for the number of entries with 40 participants showing the MTB scene in Oman is growing. The course was a mix of graded roads and singletrack with some twisty technical sections and wadis. An initial lap was done at a relaxed pace to learn the course before racing began. Mens Results Top 3
James also clocked fastest lap time: 15mins 1sec. Compared to last year’s results James clocked a slower best lap time this year (15:01) than Suleiman in 2009 (14:46). However he beat last years winner Suleiman on overall time - 1:02:23 compared with 1:03:07 for Suli in 2009. It was a shame that Suleimans retired with a punture this year otherwise there might have been an interesting duel? |

How very dare you.
I won 20,000 rials for winning that race.
Unfortunately it was Iranian rials so I can't exchange it or spend it unless I go to Iran.
Matty I would be willing to lend you the money to toddle off to Iran for a bit...
