Mike finished a 50 mile race on Saturday in under six hours. He has been training for the BC bike race which will take place a the end of our vacation. That race will take seven days, be over 550 km and 40,000 feet of vertical on single track off road trails. This race was just a little "reality-check" for Mike in his training. He wanted to do one race along the way so that he would know how his training has been going. He was happy with his endurance and now wants to work on his speed. We were proud of how well he did...and happy we didn't have to ride 50 miles in the heat and dust!!!
