Friday ~ Foto Friday
A couple years ago somehow I got into mountain bike racing. Like it. Thrilling. Challenging. At this particular race I led the entire race. I outran the chic (in the middle) on the all the straightaways so I pretty much had first place secured. At the finish you had to bike down by a fence for approximately 25 yards, make a quick switchback to the finish. I had first place, so I quit pedaling and coasted to the finish. She caught me at the last second. hmmm. Hard lesson learned. Never stop pedaling. :D

I am in for foto friday! One of my good friend is a mountain biker and it is intense!
Posted a *painful* photo of me from my last Half Marathon.
I am going tell your story to my kids.....
Ahhh, that must have been frustrating! No shame in 2nd place, though!
My pics are up.
That's why we race, it's not over until the names are called:)
That's too bad about getting bumped out of first place. Second is still amazing! I bet you haven't made that mistake since then. :D
Great picture!
Nice...on award box!!
I just posted some pics!
Ouch that had to have hurt.
Yowza! Tough lesson there..
No matter how you look at, that sucks big time!
I'm in for foto day!
Have a great weekend!
Yeh, so what, you are still taller than her on the podium... so take that sneaky b*tch!!
Bummer. But #2 is nothing to sneeze at. Nice job!!
And is it just me or is #3 wearing canvas camoflauge cutoffs? Daaamn. I know next to nothing about cycling, but that can NOT be the best clothing option...unless you're really into inner thigh chafe.
Tough lesson indeed. :o)
I found your site through Blyfinns CB race report. Seems like we both had pretty good days. Good luck with that half IM this weekend. Hopefully the weather is a little less wet.
