International Training!!

We went to Canada for 2 weeks to do some extensive/intensive training. We thought we could absorb some of the Olympic spirit. We hit the roads hard and did some great Mountain biking.
NOT!!!!
Frank was on the DL. An overuse ankle injury for which the Dr. prescribed rest, ice and anti inflammatories. (He did one or two of those things on any given day.) So we took to doing some serious cross training to keep our minds sharp, bodies flexible and palates keen. We went to yoga, solved Sudoku, drank 'Moosehead' and 'Thirsty Beaver', completed crossword puzzles and read books.
We planned to return to the US ready for some serious work.
Our friends from Roberts Creek BC, Barb and Pete Mason, are going to do the Oregon portion of the ride with us. They will have their car with them so we will have a sag wagon! Three of us will ride and one person will drive the car and gear to our next stop. I think it will be a great way to start the trip.
We leave in 26 days:)
