Breathe In For Luck



You know the season is in full force when your bags still are not unpacked from the last race. Few things are worse then opening a suitcase only to be greeted by the remains of last weekends lycra effort.

This weekend Vail, CO is playing host to, The Teva Mountain Games, hands down the best event of the year (Norba needs to come out here to take some notes). Check out Yahoo's live updates as the weekend unfolds. I will do my best to bring the event to you from my shoes, but next year you will have to see for yourself.



It is amazing how much damage one can do to a bike in only a matter of 60 minutes. I rolled into Vail early to check out the local Wednesday night series and see if I can take some evil satisfaction in challenging Henry and Janelle on their home turf. Not always an easy task but it paid off (life is somehow better when you have a Benjamin in your pocket).

Special thanks to Vail's own "cutters", Art's Barbarians, for taking me under their wing and showing me the local ropes....



If you are wondering what I am doing tomorrow....... it will probably look a little something like this!
