State Champions

On August 8th, Brandee's Category 4 women's team won the State Time Trial Championship for their category. It was 32 miles, 1 hour 23 minutes, and pure focus and effort. We were exhuasted, but we rocked it, beating the second place team by almost a minute! The cool thing is that we didn't have any of that fancy time trial gear...no skin suits, no aero helmets, and only two of our bikes even had aerobars.

Here we are very serious listening to our race instructions

This is our official photo finish. They stop your time when the front wheel of the 3rd bike crosses the finish line.

State Champions: Ann, Brandee, Camille, and Erica

Moody Blues

We survived the worst of the heat wave - though it's still going on! I think we got up to 101 & 104 for two days! On one of the hottest days we went with Dad to see the Moody Blues at Chateau St. Michelle in Woodinville. It was a really good concert and those old guys still rock!
