Greetings from the green hills of backcountry Mena, AR! Seriously, the green grass and surplus of trees is a delightful shock to the system. Also, while the high in Boulder tomorrow is 29 degrees, lookie at what we are basking in here:
And sitting at low elevation once again.
The gas stations in Mena had bobbers, camo hats, flasks, and homemade biscuits and country fried food. It was awesome! Even better, we arrived at our rustic cabin for the weekend.
There is even a little stream. I am very impressed with the landscape of Arkansas!
Then it was time to go ride after sitting on our butt for 14 hours.
Yuki and I following our fearless leader.
There was lots of water, water, everwhere!
It’s so weird that you don’t have to water your grass!
Tomorrow is course recon day. Stay tuned!
Good luck this weekend!! Kick some butt!!
Thanks Don!
Have a great race!!!
