PREPARING FOR RACE DAY





Donna's next race is two short weeks away and since it's relatively close (Santa Barbara) we decided to head up there to ride the course so Donna could get a feel for it. There's lots of tight switchbacks which aren't Donna's favorite. There's also a pretty sketchy downhill drop with open exposure and sharp, jagged rocks covering the downward slope of the hill. All in all, its gonna be a tough race course, but Donna is totally up for it. She took a few spills today, trying a master a few sections that intimidated her at first. Despite the cuts, bruises, pinches and blood, she came back for more and kept trying every section until she cleared it.
