| Trioba24h Race, with Liz Stahl, Aaron Rinn and Eric Bone.
What a race, way too short but a fun course in the desert out by ellensburg..... lost a lot of time in the kayak due to putting liz and aaron together in a boat... man did they suck... about 17 minutes on DART by then, ... uphill some more and then eric blew a hole into his tire on a pointy rock ... never seen such a big gash on a tire... had to cut out part of his bike number to put between the new tube and his punctured tire... lost another 20 and were 45 behind DART when we started actually racing hard... eric was in superb bikeshape for never training and aaron towed liz up all the hills.. i did ok but not great... 35minutes behind DART, 20 behind helly hansen and 10 behind mpgear.com into the trek, eric navigated at his best and we caugt DART and raced superhard to get back to the TA 15 minutes ahead of DART and even more on helly hansen... eric was throwing up hard and after a quick TA we raced back to the finish line in 11h, taking 2 minutes off DART at the end and winning it overall... it was supposed to be a 24h race but was way too short..., great team dynamics overall and just a phantastic race for us... |

| mtb roundabout where last years trioba was... it was follow mandatory route (such BS) and we got lost anyways, partly because the flagging was bad, and we all missed a turnoff... instead of going back we fiddled around and i eventually just navigated us there by looking at the topography (there were no roads on the map)... lost about 20minutes...
by that time we were in like 20th place, worked our way up to 4th after the run, franklin was bonking and i was towing yumay.... liz was doing great... |
