A week after the XCC and XCO National Champs held

A week after the XCC and XCO National Champs held right across my home, I still can't believe we've managed to pull this off somehow.
With good and lows, but especially with a huge team effort, great riders and amazing crowd cheering.

Thank you for that! Chapeau 🎩

After 20 years of racing, I've done it. The XCO National Championship at Cluj. Bonus, the very first XCC National Championship and race in Romania too.
P7@ XCC / P8@ XCO.

The race is over but not the work. we still need to clean the forest and to leave it the same way we've found it.

Amazed too see how many people came to see @vladdascalu but also to cheer for me. I am lucky to have the same first name, I think. Obviously, he won both races 🚀 so from now on he will be easier recognized at the XCC World Cups because of the jersey.

Many thanks for the trust @federatiaromanadeciclism but also for the hard work of my friends from @acstransilvaniamtb

@redbullro kept our energy level high and the core temperature down.

Until the next one, I salute you!

The very first XCC race in Romania, the National Championship.
I've put all the energy into organizing the things together and with nothing left in the tank I've landed on P7.
@vladdascalu is, as expected, your new Champion.
Many thanks to everyone involved for all the effort and to all the racers!
On Sunday we race again!

It's XCC and XCO National Championships week.
And I am super proud, happy and nervous to race in front of my friends and family, in my hometown, right across my home. Besides that everyone has the chance to see the one and only @vladdascalu, 2nd place in the UCI Mountain Bike World Cup overall ranking. It doesn't get cooler than this, trust me.
Fingers crossed.

Back again in Nove Mesto na Morave.
This was my very first World Cup 10 years ago and now it was even more special. I have waited 2 years to race here in my pink skinsuit and if my 108th spot might not seem a lot and even if I had better times than ever, it wasn't enough for more. I was really nervous because I had so many friends cheering for me and I give the very best I had at the moment.
It was simply 𝒖𝒏𝒃𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒆𝒗𝒂𝒃𝒍𝒆 and I really hope that I will have one more chance to feel these goosebumps again.
Many thanks to everyone involved in this 🙏

De foarte multe ori viața nu e așa de roz pe cum pare.
Dar încerc de fiecare dată să-mi transform fustrările într-o motivație și să-mi ating obiectivele.
În acest weekend nu am ajuns să fiu prezent la Cupa Mondială dîn Germania, la Albstadt, dar abia aștept săptămâna viitoare să dau tot ce pot la etapa a 3-a de la Nove Mesto na Morave în Cehia.
Să concurez cu cei mai buni oameni de pe planetă, idoli și prieteni deopotrivă e întotdeauna o mare bucurie și o victorie în sine.
De asemenea suporterii care vor fi prezenți în Cehia, undeva la 30.000 de oameni vor face cu siguranță o atmosferă I-N-C-E-N-D-I-A-R-Ă.

A good friend told me, right after the race: sometimes you win, sometimes you build your character.

Last Saturday I’ve built some character indeed.

From winter clothes, to shorts!
From riding on the trainer, directly on some dusty trails!

I've missed this feeling.

The training for this season is going as planned, just need a few more things to adjust.

Acum câteva zile m-am lăsat electrificat pentru prima dată ⚡ și-am ieșit cu @bogdanvtt și @ebita.ro la o tură de poveste. Și la propriu și la figurat.
Acest tip de bicicletă te poate ajuta să descoperi locuri care poate erau mai greu accesibile sau ai putea să-ți pui soția/prietena să te fugărească când ai intervale. De asemenea poate fi un ajutor/stimul pentru persoanele care nu mai pot duce un efort susținut.
În orice caz mi mi-a plăcut. Mai vreau. Sper să nu-mi sară captatoarele 😅

As you can see, I’m enjoying myself in the training camp, on and off dusty trails with warm sunshine and lots of non-sport activities.

Well, not really. To be honest, like many others I’ve been struggling a bit since the covid shit started. I’ve lost all the financial support I had for racing expenses and more than 85% of the overall sponsorships I had before 2020

My charity project was also in jeopardy, barely managing to build a new bike. Thankfully, things puzzled up somehow.

That being said, I am still looking for external support. If anyone has any tips, even the smallest contributions would be greatly appreciated!

But hope isn’t lost. I’ve learned to be more resourceful and make the most out of the little things I have. I am grateful for everyone who stands by my side in these moments: my family (especially), the remaining sponsors and some close friends. Hard work seems to have paid off, and I have improved myself a lot.

For now, the woods are my playground, because that’s what it’s all about: having fun. Already been having fun for the past 20 years though. More than half my life I’ve been training and racing, but I still enjoy every pedal stroke.
