AZ. Sun and single track.

This is a little more like it.
An awesome am ride with Steve Hoover, Chris Eatough and XXX Todd. The riding alone was good enough for me to consider this a place for a winter home after I win some money at the reservation casino.

During our ride we saw people high on a butte giving Indian cries to pay homage to the vortex.

A vortex is a spiritual place of the Indians; they have since become a major tourism draw to this surreal landscape. Sedona is wedged between the high country snow and the deserts heat making it a place of good energy, I was stoked up.

We finished up our first round of photo shoots and headed for a shop visit to bike and bean. Wow what a great combo.

An early departure got our Wednesday going as we scurried to our next location Fountain Hills, site of the NOVA NMBS stage race.

We got lathered up with sunscreen and took a look at the course.
I felt stagnant and could not handle the pace that Brian Smith and Nick Martin (Trek Rocky Mountiain Team) where setting. So I backed it down a bit and met up with Sue. I started feeling a bit better and ramped it up to a stiff tempo and Sue was ripping it. I think she has a shot at the win this week.

Off to see the wizard………
So our hotel is like halfway to Tucson. A good hotel though, equipped with a ping pong table and wireless that has more than made the drive worth it though.

Yesterday I rode the course in a brisk 31:20 so I think I can pull back 3 mins from that with some sticky tires and land a top 3 we will see. It is a super twisty course with a lot of rocks and cacti so precision is everything.

Now to the TT for another pre ride to get it dialed!!

Keep your fingers crossed.
