LOTOJA

This post is out of order but I thought I would back up a bit to September 2007 B.B. (before blogging) and fill you in. This year Mark, my brother Trevor, and my dad rode in the LOTOJA. It is a bike race from Logan to Jackson Hole, a total of 206 miles. Mark and Trev rode as a relay team and my dad did the whole thing (for the 10th time) by himself. They all did really well and finished before dark. Lindsey, Trev's girlfriend Cassie, and I drove support and provided food, water, and most importantly moral support. Mark had only ridden about 250 miles in preparation this summer but finished like a champ. Next year he wants to do the entire race and says that he MIGHT even train. Good job guys!!

Clockwise: The boys at the hotel before the big race. Mark in a sea of spandex. Mark, a lonely man in the mountains. The starting line. Passing of the timing chip.

Also, is was the first time we left Jackson over night. He did well but I think my mom was warn out but was nice to have a weekend away. Thanks Grandma Annie.

I am still so impressed that Mark has started this type of hobbie! Way to go! and to want to do the whole thing next year. Impressive!
