Barb and I don’t get much time together, and although we had to share it with some third, fourth, and fifth wheels…we didn’t mind.
Darcy just moved from North Van this month, and we went to Silverstar for some DH laps. We rode the morning with them, but they got tired too fast.
The Sniper Action camera did manage to get this shot, though.
The couple that shreds together, stays wed together.
It’s been something like ten years since Barb turned a pedal in anger. Back around the turn of the century, she couldn’t be beat, especially on the old DH course at Silverstar. Well, she thought she’d dive into the hardtail class at this past weekend’s BC Cup race, and guess what?
Yeah, although it has to be said that she was the only one in the HT category. Still, it’s not like she was slow. It was awesome to see Barb charging hard for the finish line again. Chev’s and I almost missed it due to being held up by a local photog.

Chevy is looking for her Mom, ‘cause we just heard Tippie announcing her name as the first racer on course.
Overwhelmed with emotion accepting Mom’s win…
To cap it off, another freekin’ double rainbow to go with the epic lightning storm.
Whoa! Where did the season go? Only a couple of days of riding left for Silver Star. I guess I’d better get up there.
Took my sweetie too. Thanks to my cousin for watching jr. so we could shred together.
Random Iggle Piggle sighting…
Of course, what day at the Star would be complete without a wet t-shirt contest?
Mission complete.
