| fun race at the King trails - didn't go all out, but had a good pace sitting behind CB, watching and taking notes. This is a fun place to ride, and I think I might have to do it often - nice small group - good to see tiny, jerome, craig and dunc riding too. Apres at the bull with dunac and guitarman for a little stanly cup viewing...oh, and some onion rings...;) |

| MTB 2:30:00 [3] | |
| |
| good endurance spin of Albion and Palgrave - solo in the rain - made for very slippery roots in Albion. At one point, I came across a giant black cat that made me actually stop and reconsider my route... It loped off away from me, so I carried on, but this kitteh was the size of my dog! Not a cougar, but definitely the biggest house kitteh I have ever seen - I crossed it's path (that must be bad, right?) with fear and trepidation, but I guess it chose not to pounce...whew. |

| first lap was a killer - due to missing Albion, I didn't get a call-up to the line, so started way back of a much bigger pack than normally. There were 4 catagories off for my wave - lots from QC, Sask., BC, and Manitoba. Very slippy and rooty as we were the last race of the day, and the course was pretty messy for the first couple laps in the rain - started to dry up for the third. Hard battle through the first lap, but we all settled in for the second half. I didn't feel too snappy, so failed to gain much ground after the 2nd lap, but held my own for a 3rd place finish. Not bad, but I could have been hungrier! |
