July 27

Nice and hot here in Spain. But that did not help me yesterday. After one lap with lead group,, flat back tire. All this effort, this is sport. So feeling a bit sad this morning. Any ways, there is a lot worst happening in this word so what do I have to complain,,,,,,  This was my feelings last weekend. I am getting over it and back training for Provincials next weekend. So World Cup Spian was not a succes. Let see what happens Saturday....

Canadian Championship, Lac Megantic Quebec, 2014

Canadian Championship was a brutal one. Hills , Hills and more Hills. Weather was nice with us, stopped raining before race.  TT over with, finished 3rd my category, 4th overall. VERY HAPPY with my resaults on this very tough coarse. What a road race... it was beautiful and had a great start. 3 of us took off solo on the first climb. All was going good till a turn around before another hill. My chain came off, tried to put it back on with no success. When I finally got it on the 2 others were long gone. Not fun!!! So tried my best to catch them but not possible. Finished 3rd in my category. A bit disappointed! !!! Next race World Cup Segovia Spain in July. I will have a  good preparation and hopefully no mistakes. I am very glad with my progretion this year, the future looks bright,,,,, Thanks to my daughter Jade that helped me all week and took the lovely pics,,

Great TT in Granby Québec, was the first race in Canada where the weather was nice to us... Sun was out, 19 degress with a face wind on the start. Good warm-up, felt good and off I was. Made the fastest time on this coarse.. Gold for me.. So now time to prepare for Nationals,,,
