Home for 2 weeks now

May 11, 2009

I’ve been home for over 2 weeks now and time is flying by. It’s been great catching up with friends, and watching the hockey playoffs along with a couple brews. My team, the Canucks were off to a good start, but are on the brink on elimination. It is hard getting attached to the Canucks as they always get your hopes up then let you down. I remember the 1994 Stanley Cup finals between the Canucks and Rangers, which went to a game 7 with the Rangers prevailing. I was 9 at the time, but it seems like it was yesterday. One of my favorite Canuck players all time has to be Trevor Linden. I guess you could say I would like to be like him when I grow up. This guy is really cool, and loves mountain biking and Hockey. Mountain Biking is where it is at for me right now…..

I have been riding my bike aside from watching hockey. I took about 10 days pretty easy after the Sea Otter and the body feels super rested, and recovered. The trail conditions are as good as they get right now. We are getting some good weather usually followed by some rain keeping the trails a little tacky but fast. The next 2 weeks will be heavy training with lots of intensity before resting up for the US Pro XCT race # 3 in Birmingham-Alabama. I have heard the course is super fun, with lots of single track so I am super amped to get out there and race.

Check out the picture from one of my favorite trails. The rain forest around home is so green and lush…..I love it.

Ciao,

The Mountie
