Anyways, last weekend was the Buckwallow O'Cup...Superfly Racing bringing the Buck back to the series! The Buck is a unique technical challenge to the series with all of the Canadian Shield rock. Team True Grit managed to grab 6 podium spots...including Seth and JennR in the adult categories (no they are not in the same category)!
And, of course, ApexTed was on hand to catch the action....
So if you haven't got your pics yet get on over to ApexRacePhotography!!
What is coming up this weekend? Well there is the iconic Summer Epic 8 Hour MTB Relay race at Hardwood Ski&Bike promoted by PulseRacing.
Great venue, awesome event!! I believe online registration may be closed now, but perhaps you can still sneak a way in with a prompt sob story e-mail??? Or maybe not...
If you ain't at the Summer 8 Hour, well then, you can do Max'sBigClimb. An event racing up Sydenham Hill, with local hero Mandy Dreyer to support finding a cure for Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
Or you can always do the Sunday Riot Ride. OK that's not really a thing (it's fake like the moon landing, Trump as president, Canada only 150, and Elvis died). Although there was a ride last Sunday...on our local trails. Fig scraped himself up on a rock and had to bow out...
Well maybe it was worse than that...maybe...
Anyways the rest of us finished up the ride (there are SO many trail options here!!)...
And as usual finished with too much food, recovery refreshments (including the cider Fig left behind! Jaimie and PowerPaul may have polished that off... ) around the firepit...
Anyways as I mentioned so many trail options locally...and the weather has been perfect...so my ride of choice is the single speed which has been seeing as much time as I can give it!
No challenge to our local trails (yes...that is sarcasm.)
(Sorry, don't mean to be condescending...you know what that is, right??)
Luckily this wasn't mine...
but someone had a long walk...
There were plenty of Canada150 celebrants out there this week...
Even I had red on my fancy new Foncer jersey.
(the goofy smile was just a plus).
Actually the Foncer jersey's are amazing! The fit, feel, and quality...and an old dude like me can actually reach the pockets in the back! Sorry...didn't mean to post a cheesy product promotion...I just really like the dang jersey. Check them out at BicycleWorks in Waterdown, or at Grupetto in Dundas. Perhaps the $M royalty check is on it's way...and Elvis is still alive...living with Joan Rivers...
Wow...sorry, got on a pictorial review there that JeffS may have even been proud of...
And Lois is calling...oh...she may have just seen my latest Strava post title...
She was kinda angry with me anyways...she was writing some kind of letter or something, and asked me, "What rhymes with 'orange'?"
I said, "No it doesn't."
Anyways...I'm getting off track, again. Before I get in any more trouble...I should go. In the words of one of my favourite people, Pinoy Ryder... "Just Ride"
and,
Stay posted!!
