Pan-Ams

Hola Todos,

Asi, como usted puede haber adivinado, la noche del viernes compite en Trexlertown fue llovido fuere.

Just kidding...

As you may have figured out, the big race night in T-town was rained out.

Now I am in Mexico City with Team Canada preparing for the Pan American Championships which start tomorrow. I will be racing in the scratch race, on the 27th, and the team pursuit final, on the 28th.

Every trip has to have a mishap, and this one had a big one. Just one day before leaving for Mexico, a crack in my seat tube opened up through the integrated seat collar. Now I am on a purple bike that is way to big for me, but we are making it work.

This track is at over 2000m, and is rock hard, so it is FAST. We are almost fully adjusted to the altitude, and are hoping for a very fast time in the team pursuit on Tuesday. This is the largest team Canada has sent to Pan-Ams in a long time, and with 3 medals already on the road, this is going to be a good year for Canada.
