Firsts
This past weekend held a number of firsts. Besides the already mentioned piggy-back Lemans style start here are a few others in particular order:
- Never changed clothes. I never had time. Many thanks to Chamois Butt’r for a nether region saving product.
- No BURN Energy drinks. They were missed.
- Roadie tactics in a solo race. I’m going to have learn some new tactics.
- Having a rolling support crew. Sure hope this goes away in mtb 24 racing.

MacKenizie River Trail
We rode it yesterday and it was all that I remembered and more. With local knowledge we not only rode the 26 mile (mostly) descent, but railed the singletrack, took the more advanced options, stood behind a waterfall and dove into the Blue Pool. Amazing day.
It was so cold....50* maybe.[caption id="" align="alignnone" width="501" caption="We hiked down to and behind Sahalie Falls"]
MacKenzie River Trail
Heading to the MacKenzie River Trail today with the bachlor party. My cousin, Michael, is over from NZ to get married next weekend. In the meantime a group of friends are hitting some sweet single track around central OR. Look to facebook for some pics since it’s too much work to do from my phone.
