Mathison & Frendo find form at hinze damReturning to the scene of her first ever mountain bike race, Mathison finally rediscovered the form which had eluded herduring eighteen months plagued by a fatigue related illness. The change in fortunes could not have come at a better time, as
Queensland\'s most celebrated mountain bike export sets her sights on winning the Under 23 division at the World Championships in Rotorua, New Zealand in August.
“It’s great to be back, this is my first race back in a long long time,� Mathison said.
“I’ve been training up since I came back to Brisbane in March,�
The two-time Under 19 World Champion beat home a small but quality women\'s field, including the highly rated Imogen Smith (Flight Centre Scott) and in the process showed none of the ill effects which had placed her burgeoning career on hold indefinitely.
“It’s just good to be able to push again and to feel like racing properly again,� Mathison affirmed.
“It\'s really promising and I\'m optimistic for the first time in eighteen months.�
