Back In Business

I got some good news yesterday. My Doctor said that a couple of MRIs isn't necessary, that my knees are just achey cause I beat the hell out of them... and they simply need rest. Ah, sweet relief.

This weekend I traveled to Hood River, Oregon for my buddy's birthday. RVG's (Ryan VanGorder) big 30 celebration was a blast... mexican food and pie attacks (courtesy of Fleming). I rode Post Canyon saturday on my new Jamis xlt 3.0 - this bike rocks.. so plush, unreal. Sunday Seegs, Ty, RVG, JVG, Lee and I hit the whooptie-doo trail. After the crew parted RVG and I rode Hosptial Hill/White Salmon - the views were amazing.! Hood River is a pretty sweet place - a place I will have to return soon, I just can't get enough silky singletrack.

Overall I was very happy with the way I felt. No real knee pain, and my cardio was acceptable. I have 9 days until USARA Adventure Race National Championship in Florida. Judging by the way I feel now I think I'll be ready to race hard. How cool would it be to win the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP.!? -Very.

Sounds like kicking every ones butt up in the northwest all summer has taken its toll on you. Glad to hear you are going to make it to Nationals. Good luck to DART. Hoefully you can get some sun at at race, since it is about to leave Seattle until next spring.
