New to cycling

[DJM83]

Entered the local gravity enduro round coming up (podiumed 2 years ago in the sport category). 7 stages, that'll take a toll on the legs, liaison stages here can be tough even though i ride em all the time. That said ive ridden more kms this year than any other year at this point.
920kms
13000m Climbed.
No ebikes.
Also fitted new tyres to it, the maxxis i had on the rear, whilst it rolled well the soft tyre casing couldnt take decent hits and it showed as my rear wheel had a few dents.
Managed to lose my AXS battery cover, no idea how. Because im OCD ive ordered another.
This was the cushcore insert i pulled out, did its job to a certain extent. It does look like someone has been chewing on it
