Back on familiar grounds, Aloha

The week of the XTERRA world Championship at Kapalua is in full swing, Off road triathletes from all corners of the world are slowly making there way.  As for me, it's the last race of a season that was plague with early success and later injuries.  Ultimately though, it's also about spending time with family, friends and the tribe.  After a light run with Al and Steph last night to get the jet lag out of my legs it was time to build the bike for a ride this morning.   The weather was nice this morning and so I went riding the part of the course that's open.  Front 5 km and back 8 .  I did this with by friend Pierre from Hong Kong. You never forget the climbs and this was no different.  The course has also dried up to the point that it's almost perfect for traction.  It's good to be back.  Tomorrow is registration and off to scout the full course so stay tuned for more update.  As a side note Steph is offering taping services brought to you by K Tape for anyone at the world championship so if you know anyone it's all posted on Facebook. Happy trails!

Carpe Diem
