24 hr race prep
Author: Bake
Up at the crack of dawn Jeff Keil showed up at my place and we headed up to Boone to churn out a couple of laps up there. I'm planning on racing on a 4 man team next weekend at the 24 hr race so I needed a test of how my legs were feeling. Lap 1 was rather laid back, we picked our way around stopping every so often to take a drink. I got to ride point and clear the spiderwebs. Gah! I hate spiders.
When we got to the bottom we saw Squirrel had showed up so we waited a few mins cause we knew he wasn't far behind us. Then he showed up rocking his Surly singlespeed trying to dial in what gear to use for next weekend's race.
Our next lap took on a complete different tone. I tried my best to chase Squirrel and push myself. It felt good to put the hammer down a little and put some pain to my legs.
Here's a few pics from today.

The trails were in great shape.
