Pre-Race:
Pre-race was a little stressful for our team. My team-mates, who were en-route from Whitehorse, Yukon were delayed, as the northwestern seaboard was being smacked with an early winter storm. On Monday before the race (the race started on Wednesday morning) I spoke with them and learned the earliest they could make it to Monterrey, Mexico would be Tuesday evening. This would give us just enough time assuming all their luggage arrived? Sure enough, they showed up with all their gear at around 7:45pm Tuesday night. By 11:45pm we’d sorted our gear bags, built their bikes and set our alarms for 6:00am, which would wake us in time for an early morning bus ride to the start. We could only hope their jet lag wouldn’t impact their performance.
