SERC Race at Tanasi

josh and i got up to tanasi saturday afternoon in time for some pre-riding. WOW!! first, the drive from chattanooga to ducktown was absolutely gorgeous. the trailhead at the whitewater center definitely unique and cool to watch. and then there was the trail....DOUBLE WOW! i think this is the best trail i've been on! scenic, beautiful, not too technical, the downhills quite manageable by moi, and i looooved the climbing. totally my type of course!

sunday: woke up to fat snowflakes dusting everything - lovely! luckily not a repeat of the SMAR snowstorm though...they didn't stick around for long, but the wind that would follow for the rest of the day kept it downright frigid. the race started, and as always, i watching longingly as the riders took off. (gosh i can't wait to make enough money to race more!) i froze for the next 2 hours as i walked around and waited (and hopefully took some cool pictures). josh looked good finishing, but said it was a hard race (seems to be a common theme with several people i talked to... RacerX from BOD definitely agreed!)

in short, this SERC race was well run and as stated previously, the course amazing. i highly recommend it to all!
