HOLLIE STRIKES AGAIN
Sorry, no pics from today. We both raced the Coyote Classic Mountain bike race just outside of Boise, ID. What a hard race. I am glad that it was not hot, or I would have cracked for sure. Anyway, Hollie was the winner of the expert class again and she beat several "pros" She must have pushed herself very hard today. I pushed myself quite hard today. For some reason I decided to start the Pro Mens race. note to self: If you are going to race with the pros, you need to train.
I killed myself to stay with the top 8 guys and I hung tough. At one point I thought my eyeballs were going to pop out of my head i was straining so hard! In the end though, my famous luck got the best of me. 3 flats in the last 5 miles. I walked it in.
I am pretty excited for Hollie. She is riding well. This race was in a national points series of some type. I think she should upgrade to semi pro...i better see what is required to do that!
(I want LOONDOG to know that Hollie was rocking the TR2 jersey again.)
So now we are sitting in an RV park in Boise, I was too tired to drive too far after the race. Besides, we needed water and a hook up. Depending on weather we are either going to Sun Valley tomorrow or Stanley, ID. A kind female racer today gave us a guide book to all of Idaho mountain biking...i wish i caught her name. How cool is that, hollie and her were talking about our trip and she was excited and hooked us up! Good people exist everywhere!
