The "quick" update on what’s been going on.
Although the Olympics have passed, the season was and is still full of adventures. After Australia Keith and I joined up with our family to share in my cousin’s wedding celebrations in Calgary. I was able to steal my parents away for a couple days so they could visit our new house and spend some time with us in the loops. Only 4 short days later though I was back on a plane and headed to Austria for World cup finals. I lacked a little lustre for the final, but held on to 8th behind team mate Katerina and clinched 2nd overall in the series behind fellow Canadian Marie Helene Premont. Georgia took 5th overall. Lunch with the Orbea teamin Austria 1 week back at home and I was off to California for ClifBar’s Epiphany ride and Interbike. At the ride we did 30, 50, 90 or 150 miles…depending on motivation and bets placed. Every 1.5 hrs we had cliff product breaks to help us along the way. The ride recreates the day owner Gary Erickson decided he had to come up with a GOOD energy bar. 180 p
