What a great Start

to a Thanksgiving break. Miles and I headed down to Sarah Sturm`s house in Albuquerque on Friday night for a cross race that was to be held on Saturday morn. We got there around 11:30 at night and every one was in bed except Sarah so we went straight to bed. Upon waking we met Sarah`s mom and two sisters and were fed pumkin bread and cereal, Yummy!

Our Host Sarah

Sarahs race was at 9:15 and ours (Miles, Noah, I) was at 11:15 so we had plenty of tome to ride the course. Speaking of the course, it was a sandy base every where with a few good deep sand pits, one of which was uphill. Very fun course indeed. As far as results go Noah had a great start and led out the first lap but flatted and had to bust ass to catch up finishing 7th. Miles was consistant and sat around 8th place throughout the race. I wound up in 5th after leading the race for 5 laps and bonking, guess I`m out of shape.

Right after the race we had to take Noah to the airport so we rushed home skipping the awards. After Sarah dropped Noah off we went on a drive to see some of Albuquerque. We ate good food and visited on of the sweetest shops, Fixed and Free. Its a fixed gear/singlespeed shop strictly with a large invintory and really cool staff. I hope to be heading back there later this week for some more Thanksgiving fun.
