I have been fairly bummed out because bike camp is coming up
in 8 days, and it was looking like the Spokane contingent
was bailing. I even scored a house in Rossland, a ski house
that some friends of mine own. Tuffgrrl had to bail as she
has an ill parent that's been a priority, and the others I
know that expressed interest haven't signed up AFAIK. So
here I have this house, and am going up all by myself. I'm a
friendly sort, so I figure I'll make do going up on my own.
And I'm thinking... this camp is such a blast, why WOULDN"T
someone want to go? Then, I decided that with the house to
myself, maybe just bring the family up and they can hike or
whatever while I'm off "camping".
This morning I get an email from Tuffgrrl saying that she
has to come to camp, :-) (Gab, you hear that?) She has to
get in some fun time for herself. YAY!! We will even go up
early on Friday, to get a fun ride in before camp starts. I
am getting really excited. A new group took over the
organization of the camp, but the coaches are the same.
There will be more seperation between XC and DH riders as
the group is larger. Heh, one of the questions on the skill
sheet was "is max veritical with shuttles" a goal of yours.
Me, I'll go for the technical XC grouping, please. I hope I
get Jeannie Dwyer for my coach again.
