Another Epic Adventure: Top 10!
http://slogrown.blogspot.com/2008/04/top-10.html
9 Days, 1200 riders, 966km, 18529 meters climbing. Saturday, April 5, 2008. We finished without incident today. It was a short final stage but still painful since we raced hard all the way. We raced our Energade buddies, leap frogging the whole way. to the point of a three way sprint which we won as 7th place masters! It was a pretty thrilling finish and I cant wait to see that finish line photo with our arms in the air and big smiles! So Great, We are so proud of you guys! April 5, 2008 at 7:25 AM.

Another Epic Adventure: Acclimating to South Africa......
http://slogrown.blogspot.com/2008/03/acclimating-to-south-africa.html
9 Days, 1200 riders, 966km, 18529 meters climbing. Monday, March 24, 2008. Acclimating to South Africa. It was at dinner that night when I finally felt the effects of my travel. Shortly after sitting down I could barely keep my eyes open, I even had an espresso before dinner which helped a little but when we got home I headed straight for bed and fell right to sleep.

Another Epic Adventure: Stage 5 racing action

9 Days, 1200 riders, 966km, 18529 meters climbing. Wednesday, April 2, 2008. Stage 5 racing action. Ill try to be quick here as I need to get to sleep in this thunderstorm! Anyway we stayed with them through some fast jeep track and all the way out to the sand dunes where it split up. I am proud to say that we even came in ahead of them as I think Ritchey was having a bad day. In the end we pulled off a great 8th place masters and mid 50s overall finish to move up to 13th in masters and 73rd overall!
