We’re here!! After a little over 4+ hours in the FJ (we shoved 5 people in there), we made it to Gunnison. On the way, we stopped over Salida for some coffee, lunch, and also paid a visit to Absolute Bikes. If you’re ever in Salida, that shop rocks!
After getting to the hotel, we headed out for a quick 1 hour ride today. We only rode a small portion of the course, but it was enough for me to realize how hard Sunday is going to be.

Yeah Yuki!!! There is a lot of big granite rocks on the course!! Yikes!
Jeff getting my back…. and watching it. ha ha!
Yuki takes good photos… (that’s me giggling like a small child!)
Eddie O’dea raging the DH!
Tomorrow will be another short ride, and trying to get used to riding at 8000′. I’m a bit anxious for the race… I hope I feel good…and that I don’t crash spectacularly!
Ergon Team good luck on sunday….
Sonya, good luck to you and the entire Ergon Team at the Growler
Execute a good one and visualize smiles! Don’t kill yerself in the first 2 hours and the rest will flow like a dream.
Green power!
