Last Saturday we took a much needed break from racing. It was great to spend some time at home, sleep late and enjoy long mornings getting our fill of pancakes and coffee. The weekend started out pretty rainy but that didn't discourage the big turnout for the Great Demo event put on by our local club SMBA, short for Saratoga Mountain Bike Association.   The club put on a super event with plenty of food, drinks, friendly faces and best of all BIKES to beat on. HaHa just kidding.  Gary Fisher and Trek provided demo bikes which was a perfect time to check out how a bike rides that being in pouring rain and mud everywhere you go.  After  the ride we both agreed we liked the Superfly but not as much as our Bedfords.  Brian from Sigma and Steve the Happy Chain guy were also both there showing off their great products.   
  It was great to see everyone! Steve G did a great job on welcoming everyone.  Thanks for all the work, great food and atmosphere. You guys are the best!

See ya up there on the trails,
Happy riding,
Aleksandra & Mike
