Hardwood Hills Canada Cup

Hardwood Hills Canada Cup #3 has came and went.  I was hoping to be going well for this race and things just didn't turn out the way I'd hoped, but that's racing.

Saturday brought about a million kids to ride with the Trek Canada team and get their autographs ...

This events was also the debut of the new Trek Canada events support area.  Shiny new trailer and lots of sweet tents to keep us out of the sun!  Thanks Barry.

Special thanks to Zach, the team mechanic for all his hard work over the weekend!

Emily explains the cake

Highlight of the race weekend had to be using the Bontrager XXX Carbon 29er wheels with CRAZY fast and light 29-0 tires mounted up!  Seriously, these things are nuts fast and worth every penny of their $1900 price!
