Julian October 2007

And we were off to Julian again. This time for a double-trouble race. On Saturday we had a Road Race and on Saturday a Mountainbike race. What a challenge - we were lucky to have gale-force winds on our road race and absolutely freezing temperatures on the Mountainbike race! What more could we ask for???? Just my luck!

We went for a walk through Julian and found some real good South African wine. So we bought everything on the shelf and decided it would make an excellent carbo-loader!

This is how we love a room to look. Mountain bikes on one side and Road bikes on the right! (And the wine of course)

We stayed in this really cute place in Julian. Our room was the one of the right of the white door. Really cozy.

Getting ready for the Mountainbike race.... I managed to be able to ride the new Specialized Stumpjumper. It was loaned to me for the weekend by the Bike shop as a "test bike". To all my cycling buddies : AMAZING! It has the new "brain-shock" at the back. It was stiff when it needed to be and took the bumps when it had to. The race was a breeze on that bike.
