It’s been almost a week here in sunny Tucson

February 17, 2010

There is some great riding around Tucson, and lots of friendly people as well. I rolled in here Thursday night and met up with the rest of the Canadian team athletes that are here for the 10-day camp. We have split the days between the road and mountain bike, most days have been around the 4 hour mark, with a couple shorter days, and one long day in the saddle. I did a great mountain bike ride Tuesday, which took me up around the backside of Mt Lemmon. There was some pretty hairy technical stuff, but the Epic took full control, and I managed to clear all but 1 section on the 45 min DH. We followed a river a lot of the time, and there were some pretty amazing swim holes to dunk our heads in. It's been really great to have a good chunk of the national team here in Tucson, it’s a great group, and there is some real good team bonding going on.

3 more days here in the Desert, and then back home to Victoria. I’m looking forward to riding all the way up Mt. Lemmon tomorrow; I hope it isn't too cold at the top! I gotta say the body is feeling pretty good, it doesn't hurt that I am down at the pool lounging in the 75 degree sun, surrounded by palm trees, with a cold one in hand, post ride of course:)

I’m glad I didn't get my new SL3 in time for the camp as the majority of the roads around here about as smooth as teenager's face with a healthy dosage of acne.

I'll check in next week from back home with a full Tucson review, and hopefully some tired legs.
