Hinton....

...and day one. Alberta provincial xc.
Did this trip last year and the relaxed set up and awesome course makes for a great weekend of riding. To bad not more Albertans makes it out. Small category fields makes for a mass start and with a case of beer to be won after the prologue Im sure not to be the first around. Last year it was Shantel hammering it through, this year it was Pepper.
Did one short lap; then two longer laps which treats you with some real mtb trails. So much fun. Great day of riding and a clean Alberta jersey to add to the closet :) Credited of course to my favorite riding buddy; Toby.
Jon came out too and had a strong race as well after a few hard weeks off the bike; second place just a minute or so behind the winner (Sam?)...and with energy left to pose a wheely across the finish, expect lots tomorrow!
Suzanne also raced and got her first medal and first finish solo race. So good day for the few Calgarians out.

Tomorrow second day and marathon time...

Happy Riding!
