Bend Re-Cap

August 27th, 2009 by stacey

Saturday Morning:  Headed off to Bend.  We had a great house with a Bocce Ball court!  Saturday night was low key because Andy had to prepare for his race on Sunday.

Sunday Morning:  Terry took Andy up to his race.  He started in 26 degrees (brrrrrr) around 6:15 in the morning.  With a few mechanical shifting problems, he still managed to take off.  We brought a cheering section up to see him pass one of his aide stations around 5:30pm.  He finished the race at 7:45pm — 13.5 hours of bike racing, 100 miles complete.  Wow!

Monday:  We went white-water rafting on a little guided tour.  That was great fun and we want to plan a day-long rafting trip now!

Tuesday:  After eating at Dechutes Brewery, we headed home.  Andy, Lily and I were so exhausted. We went to bed at 7pm and didn’t awake until 6am on Wednesday morning.

Well, that is just the brief re-cap of our trip.  Andy posted some race pictures and information on Facebook.  I will try to get around to posting pictures here soon.
