8-26-11


Me: I went to Flagstaff for another weekend of mountain biking. This time to race in the 3rd annual Barn Burner event. About 1000 riders compete in this 100 mile race in various categories of solo, duo and 4 person teams. Bob did it last year with his buddy Scott Adams (& they did great) but this year Bob was working so Anna and I teamed up to race the women's duo division (more on how we did later). Heidi (in photo) raced on a co-ed duo team. This was Heidi's first race since breaking her back a year and a half ago and she did awesome! So this was an emotional and triumphant day for her. Way to go, Heidi!

PS: We had great weather except for the afternoon thunderstorm that rolled through evidenced by the mud all over Heidi.

  1. Jane - Tell Heidi that she did a great job - broken back last year, and this year racing. That's a real success story. Glad you had a good week end.
