Hey guys, don't forget to bring over your parkas.

Forecast for Saturday: 7 degrees and chance of snow. At 10am, it'll probably be 3 or 4.

Wow - can you imagine doing a race at this time of year? Man, that'd be cold.

Oops. Sorry.

Wishful thinking....

It will go on......snow, rain, sleet or hail....it will just make it more interesting!

Sweet That is awesome might be better to bring a mountain bike then a road bike then. Speaking of which I have to get mine in to Fort Street Bikes for the safety check

Getting up at 0400 to be in Sooke by 0615 is suddenly seeming like a really bad idea. Damm snow.

I'm a "Maybe" for the ride on Saturday... waiting to see how my day goes tomorrow - I'll keep ya posted.

But I'm volunteering at the race on Sunday ... I'll be in either transition or at the entrance to Seaparc (in/out of T1/T2) ... hopefully I'll get a chance to meet some of you!

Unless anyone says otherwise, the plan is to meet at the parking area on Dallas near Moss at 10am (on Dallas, not at clover point).

I will try and make it. I went out for a short run last night just 4 k and hurt my calf muscle hopefully it will be somewhat ok because I am doing this thing anyway if it likes it or not.

I picked up my race package and am not happy with the number I got. I got number 1

Went out to Sooke today to drive the course and it was WET SNOW!!! Hilly course but great scenery along the water for some of it.

Sorry I won't be joining you guys tomorrow ... stuff gets in the way of life sometimes ...

But hopefully we can meet/get together in Sooke ... I'm volunteering, I'll be somewhere in transition ... I'm mid-30's although I look mid 20's (yay genes!) ... I'm Cree although I look Caucasian (damm genes) ... 5'6, slim, short hair, probably wearing some shade of blue ...

Hope to see you all there!!

Hey guys, I am on my way to the ferries to work in Victoria. I will try to break away for a while tomorrow to watch the race in Sooke. Pretty hard to miss me as I'm in a big pick up with "HAZ-MAT" decals all over it. So if you see me wave me down! I know Shawn is #1 so he'll be an easy pick but I'll be watching for everyone else! Good luck to everyone riding today and racing tomorrow, you are all NUTS!

Yeah, we are the guys...we do what no one else wants to do or what other people won't do because they have common sense. "Law enforcement professional"? you the fuzz?

Well I'm a dispatcher, so basically I'm the cop's secretary ... with the added bonus of being a secretary that gets to tell them where to go. ;-)
But yup - I do all the call-outs or arrange the call-outs, for stuff like that ...

I'll look for you on Sunday ... I'll be freezing my tucus off volunteering in transition. ;-)

Well, I'd like to say "that was a GREAT ride!"... but I can't. Cuz I wussed out. My neck was incredibly stiff & painful yesterday and I still didn't have full movement today.. so I bailed.

But I showed up at 10 anyway, cuz I didn't want them thinking that nobody loves them. : Good thing I did, cuz nobody else showed up (BOO!)... and the weather was kinda crappy. Hope they had a good ride.

I was thinking about you guys ... but alas - was still in my pj's at 1000 this morning ... something about waking up to a white ground did NOT bode well for my motivation. Ugh.
