TransRockies Report

posted by id* at 03:02 PM on August 19, 2008

"Well, that happened."
-State & Main

I'm flying home from Calgary, the Transrockies now a checkmark in my "did it" column.  The epilogue of this story is rather simple: I'm now going back to normal life. I don't have a next thing planned. I am looking forward to spending a few less hours in the saddle in the coming weeks though.

All in all, we spent over 40 hours riding during the 7 day race, and despite my perhaps slow-feeling pace that got slower as the fatigue of 7 days of racing got closer to the final finish line in Fernie, we still maybe even did okay. 

Thus started Chris' last report from Trans Rockies 2008.  Take a look at what he had to say HERE.

This was a long hard ride but Chris and his partner Mike Cushionbury (check his report HERE) did exceptionally well and put the Riders Club on a firm footing for next year's Trans Rockies. 

Take a look at all his reports here!
