What a beautiful day for another muddy mountain bike race. Blue sky and blue podium, baby!!!

This race was full of hills and looked absolutely brutal. You can see in the fourth photo that Aaron let out some sort of primal grunt/shout as he hammered by me; it actually freaked me out. But he was fine, and he WON!

If you’ve lost track, he has now podiumed in every single race (winning most of them), and is now in the lead for the whole series by 20 points. Yeahhhhhhh buddy.

I think I’m getting fairly decent with the race photos, too. Although, to be fair, Aaron is the one who makes that mud look gooooood.
