We just got back from three days of training in Seattle. Shannon, his wife Jonie and I stayed with Iain and his wife Bethany. Iain had scored three awesome bikes from South Sound BMW for our use. We had two Huskies, a 250 TXC and the 310 TE, and a beast of a bike, the BMW G450X.
We had hoped for rain since all our previous training had been on the dry deserts of southern California and in Oregon during the dry season. Well, we hoped for rain and rain we got. It rained all three days we were there. Not constantly, but enough to make things very wet and sloppy. The trails handled the water well, but some places were deep and very slippery. I will attempt to post up more on that later.
Also, Oklahoma Magazine has published a story on my involvement with the GS Trophy in their November issue. Check it out here: http://www.okmag.com/online/November10.html

"Ultimate" is a subjective term. I have met plenty who were much more deserving of the accolade. One man's ceiling, I have heard, is another's floor. How true. I don't presume that my adventures are any more worthy of merit than many of yours, but they are all I have to share. I appreciate your visiting my blog and I hope you enjoy these exploits a fraction as much as I have enjoyed living them. Most importantly, I hope these stories inspire you to go outside and create your own.
