DEVO SR 2014

Sara taming the snake with pros Laura Brown and Jasmin Glaesser.  A big thanks to Scott Robarts Photography for the great photos.

Sunday was day 2 of the stage race which saw the kids facing the dreaded Snake Hill RR.  Sara finished 4th in the RR behind a couple of pros in her first women's race!  This put her in 3rd overall on GC and into the leaders jersey for Cat 3/4 women in the BC Premier Road Series.

Sara's first women's RR and her first break.  Pretty good company...

Jen was a huge help to her rookie teammate all weekend and finished 5th overall to put two Mighty's on the podium.  Sadly she was beer fined shortly after for forgetting her podium jersey...

Ryan had a great 7th place RR finish after patrolling the breakaway for Cory who sat in 2nd overall on GC going into the RR.  Full results here.

Final GC podium.

Leader's jeresy's for the BC Road Series.

Dirty Dirty Girls

 EV Stage Race 2014.  Stage one: Aldor Acres Mud Crit.  Sara snagged 3rd behind a certain Olympic medalist.  Cory was 3rd in the Cat 3 men and almost stayed on his bike for the entire thing... Don't ask.

Will update full results after The Snake.

St.Paddy's Podium

Our favourite Irishman finds the podium on the day of Guiness.  Don't be fooled by the Musette kit, he's just a Pirate in disguise.

Murchie RR. A group podium.

2014 RR Season begins

Bradner RR, C group.  Sara placed 3rd  Stay tuned for more podiums...

More Lillooet pre-season 2014

More pics from our fun in the mountains.

Day 1:  Meat and Lowball.  Together again.

Day 2:  Sun.  Really.

Day 3:  To the dam.

And higher.  Ice Road Bikers - the new series coming to Discovery.

This was the view back down the road from the top of the damn dam.

Cory talking shit at the dam 'finish line'.

Water bottles frozen.  Max, Sarah and Kash duly impressed.

Sarah - so excited to complete her first Mighty training camp.  Or perhaps utilizing some weird calisthenics to stay warm while Cory fixes a flat.  Luckily the only one of the weekend of gravel and snow fun.

On to racing.

Pre-Season Camp 2014

Lillooet.  This is our playground.  Some were missing but it just made us all work a little harder.

Day 1:  Towards Lytton

Shortly after this photo, Dr.Golbeck (Rocky-esque, shit eating grin and all) was accused of doping.  Refusing to go home, he proceeded to hammer us all mercilessly for the duration of the camp.  It was later revealed that his secret was well timed administrations of the whiskey flask.  

The (Really) Big Slide.  

Day 2.  The (In)famous Matt Barber climb.  What an asshole.  Gawd we miss him.

More Day 2, 3/4 in.  Who invited these characters?  Foreground: Lowball Loder.  Traitor but otherwise all around good guy fueling the tank.  Background:  Dave Gerth with a hot cup of Joe wondering what the hell he has gotten himself into.  The nicest bloke who will ever pummel you into wishing you were still in your mother's womb.  True Story.   

Day 3:  The innocent climb begining...

...the long, exposed, windy,...

...gravel infused road...

...that descends into the ice-walled canyons of Hell...

...followed by the climb to the Damned Dam.  

Good times.
