Worlds -- The course!

We have had the oppertunity to ride the course a few times now and get a feel for time checks, where to eat, where to hammer, etc. It is a fun course - about 12.5 miles and 2100 ft of climbing for the World Soloists. The teams get a shorter course with less climbing.

I am looking forward to the race ... it is a good mixture of single-track and double-track ... and lots of fun fast sections. Tanya and Vince arrive tomorrow and we are looking forward to that too! Should be a good time.

There are several spots on the course that have a panaramic view - we haven't taken our camera up there yet but here is one of the great views in the Canadian Rockies.
