All about the cake?

So there was no race last weekend to review...

but there was some training going on.  I have finally healed up enough to get back to proper training and riding.  (Well...still a bit skooched over on the saddle)....but I can ride full out now, even on longer road rides....which seem to inflame the ass-ball (abscess) somewhat.  Have had to lay off the 40 Creek too somewhat...apparently that stuff is quite inflammatory...who knew??

Anyways, I have also managed to help out my good friend and nemesis, Giant.  Giant is training for the 24 hour solo world championships that will be held in Weaver California in October.  So, part of his training is doing some marathon training sessions like he did this past weekend....starting at 9pm Saturday, ending noonish on Sunday.   (yeah....all nite...).

Here is a group that helped him ride through a good part of the night...

When they were done, NewfieSteve helped Ondrej out for a couple more hours over nite...

Then some of us put in some time with him when it got light out in the morning...

Here's another angle....

Another angle??

Anyways....then more supporters showed up to take part in the recovery...

That's team ShiCauichi....

Even EnglishJim showed up later...surprisingly fully clothed...

OK...enough about Giant...although he is aptly nick-named...he is killin it this year at this sport!!  Watch out for him...he's getting better fast!!  All about the cake??

Speaking of...

This little jigger (son of Riot), AutoMATTikk...

Congrats buddy!!

It's not all about the cake...he loves Kinder Surprise...

Anyways...back on track...there are rumours that Blaze is back...

Whaaaaaat??

There are also rumours coming out of BicycleWorks...TeamBicycleWorks for next year????
Hmmmm...???

Anyways....enough about everybody else...
With no race last weekend what is up this weekend??

It's OCup #7...provincials...the final OCup of the season...held up at Highlands Nordic in Duntroon...

Heading up with Giant Saturday to pre-ride....racing it Sunday.

Then I have a decision to make about the next weekend...too many options...and life interruptions...

How will it all go??

Stay posted!!

PS:  Yeah...short and sweet this week...well short anyways...
