BC Bike Race 2008

This Friday, Fig Rolls Racing Canadian representatives Andrew (me) and Nikki finished "the ultimate singletrack experience" of the BC Bike Race. The BCBR is a 7 day stage race, up Vancouver Island, over onto the mainland (with help from a boat), back down the coast, and then up to Whistler (with the help of a bus) .

Look, I got some free coffee.

There will hopefully be riding pictures to look at later, and perhaps even some real details of what it was like... but for now let's just say we managed to avoid such obstacles as heat exhaustion (not ending up with all the other victims in the medical tent each night), broken bones, broken rear mechs (15 on the first day alone) , broken frames (3 during the race), and broken spirits to roll in 20th in the mixed category out of 32 teams. It rocked. Marc's photos are here.
