Death valley

Over 550 km of sweet road and hot weather. 44 degrees was the hottest day, the temps would reach 36 by 8:30 am each day. Bring lots of water this place is very deceptive and does not offer lots 2nd chances. It was one of the hardest rides I have ever done. I can't wait to go back in 2013. You in ?

Death valley to me is my "Everest" , it's so hot and dry. Each day we would drink around 5- 6 liters of water. We planed the town stops, so that we could take on more ice and water. On day 3 we ran out of water on the last climb out of the valley into Shoshone and were lucky to flag a few cars down for more water. I hit the wall big time on that day, I loved every minute of digging deep.

Some people say that the 508 race or Badwater race is harder, maybe. I have never done them, so I can't really compare the two. They are both hard events, hands down. But, I think heading out into Death valley with no support team by your side 24hrs a day is way harder. No one is there making sure you are on top of your salt pills and talking to you when you have a "low" spells.

If you ever get a chance to go to Death valley, GO !!!! Maybe not on a bike for 4 days and 550 km, but for me it's a little slice of heaven and hell.

Thank you DEATH VALLEY! See you again in 2013
Enjoy the ride !

Already thinking about the glide

Leadville , Team Salomon

Big time, Wolsky !

Thanks Bike Co!

 

Another great couple of days in the Alpine ! Never pass up a trip into the wilderness. Whistler Bike Co is one of my sponsors over the last couple of years and this year they really came together for me. Thanks crew. 

 A season end Bike Co trip was organized for the south Chillcotins. A place that I have been coming to for years. I fell in love with the terrain the first time. Go check it out. It's a must.

Thanks again to the Bike Co crew for another great season and fun in the Bike shop !

 

Always enjoy the alpine !

I have too many stories of this trip full of  laughter and way too many beers. See ya at the 5 peaks !
