Heading to Socal
March 25, 2010Just enjoying some last days at home before I commence Thursday, probably the biggest trip of the 2010 race season. I will be racing in Socal, Norcal, Guatemala, England and Belgium before returning back to Victoria in early May. It's always nice to be home and recharge the batteries, even if they don't need recharging. I have missed riding my mountain bike last week as I left my race bike with the team, although I have had some really good training on the road bike. It is hard just riding the road bike and needless to say I am pretty damn happy I race mountain bikes! I love a good road ride but IMO, nothing compares to really good single-track ride. It's hard to even compare I guess.....
I'm pretty excited about this weekend's opening round of the Pro XCT in Fontana put on by the US Cup. I always tend to have a good race there and after finishing 3rd in 2008 and 2nd in 2009, it's pretty obvious where I would like to end up: ) I'd have to say I am most worried about Sid, who just finished 2nd overall in the San Dimas road stage race in front of some big names and teams. Good thing he's my teammate!
Can't wait to ride my Epic again.
