Iron Lung XC and Organ Grinder 5hr enduro

Considering the week leading to the race…it went pretty good.

It was a busy week. Cleaned the the trailer,short circuited (ans smoked) its power converter, visited beautiful Ft McMurray for work, sold our house,sent the in-laws home and got a flat on the way to work on Friday.  Packed up the kids and the camping stuff too [...]

Deadgoat Giver8er 8 hour enduro race

We already had 2 inches of snow in the backyard on Saturday morning and the forecast looked pretty bad for Sunday too. Looked like it will be cold and rainy for the entire race. In preparation for the mud I decided to put on my CX tires,and Bogi was prepping for the first ever [...]

It’s weird,but I won.

I don’t usually do that,but I won the Trans Stoney Marathon today.

But in order here is how the long weekend of racing unfolded:

Saturday,drove up to Fern &Harvey’s MTB Farm (fantastic trails!) and froze our butt tenting with [...]

Salty Dog 6 hour enduro race

When we signed up few months ago it was only to increase our motivation for training. But on Sunday we were at the start line of the 2010 Salty Dog 6 hour Enduro race in Salmon Arm. My 2nd 6 hour race ever,Bogi’s 1st. Not sure how the body will function after 3 hours,[...]

Alberta Cup race #1,painful,clumsy and slow as expected.

After picking up the lucky #7 number plate for the year,we headed to pre-ride the  short and muddy 2010 Coulee Cruiser course. The organizers were able to modify the original course so it avoided the most muddy spots. As a result,by the time of the race start the trail dried so much that mud was [...]

Olympic Oval Cross –1st CX win for a long time

After all the new wheel and tires were not leaking I had much more confidence in my gear then the previous night. The course was muddy and snowy and looked barely ridable.  Took off with the Expert field this time and got to the first barricade as the last rider. That is when the slippery [...]

Dark Knight cross –almost dead last.

I picked up a set of Racing Ralph 700×35 on Friday at Hardcore. They are expensive but their 2.4 big brother run really well on my mountain bike all season. Mounted the tires with Stan’s on Saturday morning and headed off to IKEA to get some furniture for my daughter. By the time we got home and started re-organizing the house for [...]

Bow 80 –pedal for your life

I have never participated on a race where I was thinking about my survival and not my result…until today.

2009 Bow80 single speed podium

The forecast said it will rain until about 9am and we will enjoy the +7C temperature. Everyone dressed accordingly.

I was around top 5 on the top of the Sulflur [...]
