It’s been 2 weeks back in the US, and now I'm racing at the Sagebrush Safari, big weather change compared to the 75-80F back in Costa Rica. Despite the heavy downpour all day Saturday and pre-riding in very wet 40 degree weather the day before the race conditions were awesome! Super tacky track and the occasional mud 2-wheel drift were all part of this really fun weekend.

The pace at the start of the race was mellow with one rider getting away towards the top. This was the perfect setup for my teammate Sid Taberlay to attack at the top of the climb, before heading into the single track, mission accomplished by Sid with Jeremiah Bishop chasing

all day in second place, and myself coming in third it was a great day for Team Sho-Air/ Specialized.

Looking forward to the first stop of the 2010 H2O Overdrive Triple Crown All Mountain Series #1 – Bonelli, should be another great weekend of XC racing.
