Saw all the pre-race run-through footages of the Pro and amateur courses. Both looked sick-sick-sick. Sure looks like the rain changed its character from the week before.

Saw the time spread on Cat 1 50+ - - dang, about two minutes first to third (!) Saw they even split out a couple 60+ guys for Cat 1 results.

BIG congrats to Jaimie Rees (Spokane) for her third place podium in the Pro Women!!! Her hard work paid off. Props too to Kyle Thomas for a respectable 15th in the Pro Men.


Am going to return to my regularly-scheduled kicking myself for not being there.

^^ Very cool.

Which reminds me . . . the unofficial Whip-Off Worlds from this year's Crankworx in Whistler:

It's lighter to lift onto the rack after a day of posing in the parking lot.
