Riding with Micah & Corrie

I just finished up a good ride with my Bicycle Centers/Collision 1 teammates Micah and Corrie(pictured to the right). Two great people who love 'cross and love life.

We decided to ride out at River Meadows Park, East of Arlington and do some technical intensity work on what could be a great 'cross course. We started out with about 30 minutes of pre-ride warm up, and then did 1 hour of hard efforts in the run-up and and in the sand trails along the river bank. In between we would just maintain tempo along the grass and paths throughout the park. After every lap, we would regroup, encourage eachother, and have another go at it(insert Aussie accent here). We finished up with a cool down lap and enjoyed the area, and solitude it provided. After all, this park is probably one of the largest and least known parks in Snohomish County.........Ssshhhhhhhhhhhh!

What can I say about the Bicycle Centers/Collision 1 Team. A great group of not only racers, but of people. Individuals that have a similar passion for the sport and a similar one for life. I abosolutely love this team and missed it! It's good to be back.

Afterward, we drove back into downtown Arlington to the Stilly Coffee House for a cup of hot Jo. Thanks for the latte Micah, and Corrie, and thanks for a good ride and great company.

As my friend "Sherpa" promotes; "Life is good".

I would add to that; "If it's not, you are doing it wrong!"

Talk to you soon.
