Keith and Liz had talked about a stationary bike race at the Drake in Canmore, decided that afternoon to hit it up that night...sure why not.
No idea what to expect, 3 of us headed to Canmore dressed up in costumes as they had prizes for best costumes and Halloween after all.
Ended up being a fundraiser for the local Rocky Mountain Racers - National X Country and Biathlon teams.
4 bikes hooked up to a computer portrayed onto a large screen for all to see.
15 odd sec all out - fastest time and speed
Terrible first heat realizing after how much I suck in front of these national athletes.
After a few Pilsners my times became faster and ended up in finals....and ended up winning :)
Overall one of the funniest nights in a long time, similar to last years Indoor Cross Race in the barn....booze and bikes.
Keith took top costume prize

After putting on 15 lbs since Bow 80, I am ready to roll again after this night.
