You just gotta wrap wrap wraaapppp it up as my favourite teacher used to say way back when I graduated highschool in 2009. Today was the last day of training on our 10-day National Team trip down here in Tucson, AZ. We have all had some great days down here in the saddle and around the hottub and pool of course. Yesterday we finished up our last day on the phat tires. Rode some trails in the Fantasy Island bike park. It was a pretty cool area as we could keep it in the big ring the whole time and just fly through the trails not always knowing how tight the next turn was going to be, sometimes in resulted in a foot down, or riding off the trail, some got lucky enough to become close enough with the cactus's that they latched on and became buddies, I myself happen to shoot off the trail and jump through a fair sized bush. No biggie though, just rode it out like nothing went down.
We had some good team bonding going on this week, mainly the nightly hottub at around 9 pm. We would gather and wait for out National Team Hottub coach to come out. That of course is Scott our mechanic/mentor. Some have been making up water competitions, other have been jumping off peoples shoulders in the water and doing flips. Just having a grand old time basically. The camp seemed to be really good for every athlete, as lots didn't know everyone here. I think I can know say everyone knows who's who and get along just dandy.
Big thanks to all the staff down here helping out, having a camp like this is huge to young riders like myself, as we look up our elder athletes and learned a ton throughout the duration of this camp.
Evan Guthrie...Eh!
