I love training in the winter

I will be again training with Jeff Fisher at Elite in Winnipeg starting in November.I am now counting the days.I invite everyone to come check it out and have an interview with Jeff you won't be sorry.As for summer it will much of the same.Lots of camping, training/riding,not much racing and likely another trip to BC with my bike and my family.Things in the works are trying to get back into Leadville to get sub 9hr and Trans Andes in Chile next winter.

Halloween is coming-Here's one of my favorite videos

Lost and Found

During the summer i wasn't around home much so that meant i lost my way and never rode at Birch except for once all summer but this past Sunday i finally found my way back.I went with Don and we had a great ride trying to hit every climb we could find and after 1400m it was time to go home.The trails were in great shape so everyone better get there butt's out there before the snow comes.  

Summer is coming to a end

Well summer is almost over for me and the potato harvest is just around the corner.This has been one of the best summers I've had in a long time.Camped every weekend except 2 since may long.Had a great camp spot with full service,wifi,pool,hot tub,and tons of great riding.Even got out to BC for some camping and riding.I got to ride and at the same time spend lots of time with my family.My winter was good as well i spent the winter training a Elite Performance in Winnipeg and really enjoyed that.It was a good mix of weight training and cardio.I may go back this winter i just haven't decided yet.I rode my new 29er the most this year but found time for my road bike a little and my other mtb's.This is the last weekend before our campground closes so Monday i haul the camper home.Then i will be able to ride around home a little more.

I just got back from my own stage ride!!!

Just got back from my holidays in BC and the weather was great.I decided to create my own stage ride to see more area and it was better than expected.With help from some of my friends down there i rode some real nice area.Here is the break down.

Stage One-Abbotsfort to White Rock
Stage Two-Abbotsford to Cultus Lake and then back to Abbotsford
Stage Three-Abbotsford to Hope
Stage Four-Hope to the summit of the Coquihalla and then back to Hope( This was a 45 km climb straight out of Hope and 45 km back down )
Stage Five-Recovery day with easy ride around Kawkawa Lake
Stage Six-Discovery trail down to then up Sumas Mtn road then back on the Discovery trail

Had alot of fun camping in Hope ,visiting friends,watching my daughter play with her cousins and of course riding my bike.Never saw a drop of rain until the day we left.
