Cabin weekends are always fun!!! January 23-24, 2010

It's hard to believe that it is almost time for cx worlds. That world seems so far away right now. Especially when on Saturday we went for a long 4+ hour ride in really nice weather. We did a similar ride to two weeks ago, but the difference was amazing. Saturday was simply beautiful. We drove down from the cabin to Hood River to meet up with Tre. Good thing he had an extra helmet, b/c I forgot mine.

The summit. But there was more climbing to be done. 5200 total for the day.

Tre & I with beautiful views.
My favorite climb.

The gorgeous Gorge.

Then Sunday the weather could not have been more different. We woke up to lots of fresh snow! Our plan was to skate ski at teacup, getting lessons from Wendy's brother at 10:30, so we stuck to the plan. I have learned that lots of fresh snow makes skating really hard. Tim loved it. I have never seen him smile so much xc skiing. I guess his cowboy stance makes him a natural.
