Last November team blackheart.com.au endured unseasonally cold November weather in the high-country of Australia to win XPD 4th Edition by 15 hours. In a race that included; a mid-race re-start to let the extreme weather pass, over 18'000 vertical metres of altitude gain, and a last leg, night time summit of Australia's highest peak the team managed one better than their 2nd place in the Whitsunday's in 2007.Today Kim, Josh and Rob left Australia to join Damon in Europe to take on an international field in the Adventure Racing World Series Race in Spain - the Bimbache Extrem. The 4-5 day, non-stop race starts next monday and the team is hoping for some good experience prior to the 2009 World Championships in Portugal this November, and hopefully a good result along the way ... Good Luck.
