Nope I'm not racing, are you kidding?
I'll be a course marshall for a bunch of the semi pro XC races and the expert and pro DH. Really,
that means standing around letting people cross the trail when it's clear, getting to feel
important with my radio which I"ll use if there's a rider down, and probably working on my tan,
enjoying the view and picking huckleberries when it's slow. Oh, and I get to take photos.
The hubby's going to work the first aid crew, he likes to pick the spot that gets arbitrarily dubbed
"crash corner", wherever that happens to be. That usually gets to be very exciting. "yeah, this guy
hit something and went thirty feet into the air, and then smacked into a tree..."
The best part of the deal is the condo we get to use. It belongs to a client of mine who owns it,
never rents it out, but we get to use it for those days. Sa-weet... right at the base and very nice
( thanks, Beth!!) So spend the days at the races, the evenings overlooking the lake and the view
with my honey...
