Against my better judgment raced the Draper race. Survived.
June
Drove from the cabin in the blizzard to race Deer Valley. It was postponed.
Did it a few days later. Did Taming the Tetons as well. It was good just to be back on wheels.

That's a lot of setbacks for one year, yet you were patient and kept pushing forward.
Your black belt picture is awesome. With the shaved head you look totally kung-fu. "Snatch the pebble from my hand."
You went to Hawaii and Alaska and that doesn't deserve even one photo in the year recap? Just bikes? Reveal your priorities it has.
