Katie Go Bang!

We had an amazing day in Calgary with +11 and the sun bright and warm. Too nice of a day to be inside and since today was our long ride - we hit the road on our mountain bikes (still too much gravel on the sides of the road for our road bikes yet!)

We did an out & back to downtown (65km) to enjoy the Bow River. But the day was not without incident. Katie had a tumble that had my heart racing. She is fine, but will be sore for a few days, I'm sure. She just got distracted and accidentally grabbed her front brake - thus sending her over her handle bars!

She's eager to share her new scrapes and bruises -- so here's some photos for those of you that have grown tired of our graphs!


A good road rash on her chin!
And her knee took most of the skid - a bruise is sure to follow!
After the ride we were treated to dinner @ Adam and Roxcie's! Roxcie continues to impress with her cooking as we had wicked homemade Chicken Cordon Blu - yum. Thanks guys!
