So I dont update Blogs to much as you may have well noticed. Just returned from Canmore, Alberta, Canada. For all race updates you can go to www.monavie-cannondale.com and see how the team did. I personally didnt do that well. But I guess it is how you view it. I know I was tired after BC Bike race. I was waiting for my fitness to come around. Was not sure what I had in the tank. Well I started the Solo World Championship. Agreed to ride it and see where the chips may fall. Because I was one of the Alumni from 1999. In 1999 I finished 4th. There were like 5 others there that also rode back in 1999. First of all this course was brutal. 15 K 2100 ft of climbing per lap. The first half of the lap was very technical slick roots and very steep. That was a recipe for disaster on my Back. So I made it 5 laps and about 6 or 7 hours not sure. So after I called it a day. I was running around getting stuff for Tinker, Mike Cotty, our 4 person Team, even other Solo riders on Cannondale's. I loaned this rider a rear Reynolds Wheel as he blew his wheel up. It was raining Cats and Dogs after the race and when I went to retieve my wheel his tent was packed up and gone. I wonder if I will get that wheel back????

So these pictures are from our "Vacation" day after the race in Banff National Park. So Beautiful as you can see.

Till next time,

Matt
